Zapata's People

I do not think Zapata
would allow me
in his camp.

One look at this face
broken from an edge
of Western Europe,

unvagabondish,
and perhaps too delicate
for the art of war,

would wrinkle brows
and fingers itching
on hair triggers

might discover
new reason to move
toward Reconquista.
