Mexico City Angels
Spirits high as the lofty pyramids of Teotihuacán
on whose top virgins were sacrificed
but now overlooking the sacrifice of virginity
in rooms unseen to passersby.
Fallen heroes of the Mesoamerican dream
bow to ladies sitting on the crates of humanity
while making their own Aztecan livelihood
for bread and country.
The scents of sweat and diesel mix
for truckers on rest stops
to infinite dreams expanding out of realities
as yet undiscovered.
Sacramental wine is shared
on the altar of maidenhood
in a Toltec first communion
with the kiss of the feathered serpent God
upon her prayerful lips.
