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.
