Laura Alaniz

A child's memory

Scratchy plaid blanket
Red with yellow stripes
Hot and itchy underneath
Claustrophobia strikes
 
Purple and blue prisms
Bringing rainbows inside
Impossible to catch
Though we always tried
 
Objects burned into
My earliest memories

(2014)

A~E~I~O~U

The E’s squeak by The I’s are too excited The U’s come after Q But the A’s and the O’s They flow
Heartbroken

My heart breaks A little each day For problems I can’t solve For things I can’t change All I can do is pray

Secrets

Good secret Bubbles inside Let me out Bad secret Indigestion

Beside you

Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
A girl who loves horses

A palomino gallops Beside the highway Look out the window Rides over green hills Through yellow flowers

Genius

To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important

Manos Fuertes

Manos fuertes No me sueltan De la cama Yo les digo Me tengo que ir
I raise my eyes to the sky

The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind
 2
companions for life

Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
Unaffected

Your pain is far away I hear it But I do not feel it Move closer Let me know you’re here to stay
Caught in the middle

Why can’t I choose to be somewhere in the middle? Surrounded by extremes Measure everything With a grain of salt

If I must die

Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless

Hospitality

Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it

My body is perfect —ly spotted The white spots I tell myself Are my Bambi spots
