Beskrivelse
Chica del Alba - 'poetry on the coast of love' - is a bracing collection of 114 Chay Tana poems from 1969 to 2014. Here's one salty and one summery sample which also appears on the back cover of the paperback:
'Song of the Salt Air Gone Dead Love'
Seagulls
Smoothly wheeling overhead
Call me to the air and
Sea.
A salty breeze
Pushes me steadily
To where the weed
And crabs stay
And here
I fall heavily on my knees
Shaking my fists
At the whispering roll
Of powder feather waves
Breaking
I break too
And the sea
The sky
The rushing clouds
Are all too much
And I cry ...
... And the wind, salty and distant
Cries your name back.
'Elle (Summer Is Forever)'
A dream of nights
Midnight flowers
And you
Sapphire heart
Warm brown love
In flowers
By night.
You are my cool blue
Sunshade
My light lilac misty sea
And sky
By day
You're my summer beauty
And Elle ...
... You are forever.
