sifting in the sand

for the seashells sally’s

beauty (supposedly) supplied,

seafoam signs

of prayers to be answered,

and past lives

long gone/

some other man’s trash to treasure/

this big yellow belly

swelling

like the summer sun/

aurora,

aurora/

sleeping in the castle/

high off his smoke and mirrors/

pricked needles and

prophesying Protestant

white New England Jesus

beaming in the night sky/

pulling rose thorns from

this sacred heart of mine

Review: The Masterful, Unsettling Work of a Female Cuban Printmaker 

Nkame: A Retrospective of Cuban Printmaker Belkis Ayon is the first solo museum exhibition in the United States dedicated to the work of Belkis Ayón (1967–1999)—the late Cuban visual artist who mined the founding myth of the Afro-Cuban fraternal society Abakuá to create an independent and powerful visual iconography. The exhibition continues at the Fowler Museum through February 12, 2017.
