GENESIS The first day in the Garden, God was an immigrant who planted gulls in clouds. Even the smallest leaflet untangled solar filaments with prudence dissimilar to fire. If culture's root is care, it matters the object of care is visible. Did Adam first teach God the word semilla or resource extraction? Did God lack the word for monocrop when she raised its sugar from raw earth? Each body has its own small gravity. The banana pulled the world when it fell. (Paul Hlava Ceballos)
