A Cuban Modernist in Miami (by Adrián Castro)

 

Transcendental poses 

are fractured by migration 

In Rafael Soriano’s chimeras 

dreams transpire through the electric 

human 

A body can pitch several lingams— 

there is only one home 

as it returns 

from another journey 

a new sunrise an orange memory 

hand pointing the indigo 

way inward 

A conjurer throws a fistful of lips 

five teeth tell the sunburst story… 

When we search for a 

subject 

there is only finding the 

quest 

it is after all like that— 

you merge you speak there is art 

& you find your way 

home 

inside the infinite
