visit abuelo
steal his 78's
find a busted up
turntable
that plays
out of one speaker
carry it home

on a rainy day
hang your hammock
from two leafless trees

pour three fingers
of dark rum
into a clear glass
sip slowly

dressed in a wrinkled
linen guayabera
dance
one hand raised in the air
the other pressed to your chest
and cry
