From a Hilltop in Granada, Spain
From a Hilltop in Granada, Spain
The man goes to stand in front of the clothes
line where red peppers hang
like long crimson pennants, twirling and drying
into sun-withered fire to lend heat
to the sauce of Andaluz sausages. And he
folds his stout arms over his chest. He's a
sultan, a king, a posessor of wealth.
What beauties! these peppers. What treasures!
