my baliset tells a story

 Hispaniola!

Treasure seekers needed.

Spanish nights under fiery red sunsets

Before we depart: good wine, passion,

tearful goodbyes from afternoon

sleeping in too late. Mi amor ' e sty

Lanterns aglow hanging mastheads

Ornate wooden galleons; 

We sail from port(s), Barcelona / Lisboa / to

the NEW WORLD.

Snacks provided, pack essentials.

Pistol, sword, carafe, bedroll.

Every adventurer granted amnesty

And a spot / held under review.

Proclaim allegiance

To the Queene, her highness,

Godess of the realm! 

Sincerely,

Ambassadore JCL 

signatore, notario, lothario, governo

humble servant,

deeply bowing

as the court jester 

comes on after the candle waxes / wanes. 

 (palace chamber raucous)

Two years later 

The sun shines in the same angles

But piled in the middle

Treaures of the nuevo tierra.
