Tomas Prato Poems

Senora Olivia
From Bolivia
Met Herr Willy
From Chile
...

This is a place
For old cows to
Live out their last days
Writing third-rate poetry;
...

O dark, dark, dark, amid the blaze of noon,
Irrecoverably dark, total eclipse
Without all hope of day!
As I enter the dark world of this online poetry site
...

Antofagasta, Chile's second-largest city,
a jumble of one-way streets,
high-rise concrete buildings,
modern malls, crazy traffic
...
