A collection of poems describing the exterior world, such as:Orinocos of the ImaginationI’ve never been to the Orinocoand have seen few photos of it,but I feel I know its sinuous lengths,winding between thick jungle walls,flashing silver in the sun,delicate waterfallsthreading from cloud-shrouded cliffs,dense foliage adorned with birds of kindergarten colorsand jaguars that merge into shadow,the insistent music of bird cry and monkey chatter,dugouts and caimans scoring its sleek waters, those who people its valleygliding nearly nakedthrough twilight forests,dappled by the distant sun.I know these lush landscapesfrom my dreams.
