The Georgia Review Fall issue has published Mónica Ojeda’s Botánica de Quincey, from Historia de la leche, in my translation along with the original. The Delusional Epitaphs poem is online in English and Spanish.

Bloomsday Again
21st Bloomsday
for Pep
Today your death is
twenty-one years old.
An adult.
Today your death could
walk into a bar in Boston
and order a Sam Adams.
Today your death could
play blackjack at Encore
(which is only five, btw).
Today your death could
rent a car, adopt a child,
be a driver's ed instructor.
Today your death is
a college junior majoring
in grief management.
Today your death is
so big it would need
numeraled candles on its cake.
Today your death will
have just fifteen more
years to live.
