The death of Carlos Huarrez (Free verse) by Caducus
In a street named after a nuke
fifty limp stars hung with Carlos Huarrez
forty five yards from a wire fence
he used to pluck F14's from.
Carlos became a marine
looking west from the east
whenever shots hit sand leaving
death shells with blue screams.
His taker was Kazem from Lahore
an earthquake made him a soldier.
Once he made boats, and children
both he and Carlos held shells
to there childrens ears.
In a woman Carlos called 'Te Amo'
is a boy she named after him
clasping at the fence
she makes pictures
from wired diamond clouds
waiting for wind to move the flag
