Oda a las Tres Caras, Una Tierra

Let me tell you about the earth,
how she is round like a fist
that never learned to close,
how she carries us child, woman, elder 
stacked like a small country
built out of one clay spine.

I have seen her cry.
Not the way rivers cry, running away from themselves,
but the way a mother cries,
still standing,
still holding the plate out for everyone else’s hunger.

Her rim is written in spirals 
this is how she remembers:
not in lines that go forward and forget,
but in circles that come back
to touch what they already know.

The fish arrive at her edge with their mouths open.
The birds arrive the same way.
Everything that is hungry
comes to the earth
and the earth,
cracked and glazed and fired by hands that loved her,
says yes, yes, come closer,
I was made for this.

And above her, the three faces sleep standing up,
dreaming the one dream 
that to be carried
and to carry
are the same prayer
said in different mouths.

I am the fourth face.
I am not in the clay,
but I am the reason the potter
pressed her thumbs in exactly here,
and here,
and here 
so that the earth would have somewhere soft
to keep crying
without breaking.
