Madrid & Porto

by Émilie Galindo

Your mouth can hold sense

like splayed fingers cup water.


Madrid : Beyond Cha-Ching

Cruising from PEW PEW

—green assent like arcade gun 

shooting— crosswalks to 

ZZZ docents inside

honeyed and moneyed combed through 

culture CLING, CAJA

Above the ¡CRI,CRI!

harnessed wind blows a wordless 

Hey Jude so you hum


Porto : Lip and Lopsided Phonograph 

Your mouth can hold sense

like splayed fingers cup water.

You wheeze a paper 

S, when a hot-air balloon 

SH will make it clear
