FLAGS OF THIS COUNTRY AND NEW MEXICO’S RED ZIA

 

-         Miriam Sagan (U.S.A.)

 

Flags of this country and New Mexico’s red Zia
wave seemingly
just above my pillow

but actually fly from a pole
west and across
Sierra Vista street

town is full
of my former students
who haven’t accomplished
much of anything

“you changed my life”
one says in the deli section
of the gourmet store

I don’t see how
but then again
I also
haven’t accomplished anything
except keeping you company
