THEY WILL BURY THE CHILD ...
Carlos Barbarito

trans. Brian Cole

°***°

They will bury the child.
They will read psalms from a book
with pages of fine copper,
other children will sing
a sad song,
unkempt,
with dirty knees.
No-one will know what
caused his death,
they will blame the cold,
the smell of the camphor
that he carried in his pocket,
the word jasper
that he never knew,
some bread
thrown away in a yard,
covered with insects.
They will bury him shortly,
tomorrow, within
a year, a century.
They will not close his eyes.
