Revival

 Urtica is back online. Send me your most disturbing work for the blog and your most traumatic manuscript for the press.


A Vampire in Disguise



Could a cow-boy be a coward
in the lines of indefinite pleasures?
The story of two impossible moons
landed on the skin of the red Indian.

Father! Your cookery and imagery
cannot erase the felony and treachery.
The words come true in this language
linguistically genuine;
they have the power to unravel
the dark machinery of my dreams.

Walter Ruhlmann, Carmin Carnival, 2013
