It’s Opening Day For The Dallas Cowboys, Yeah!

How Leonardo da Vinci made a sketch
of the Dallas Cowboys centuries ago
remained a mystery until 1960.

Just like the way you kept that little mole of yours
secret for so long.
The Spaniard confessed: The walls of the Alamo

are made entirely of Indians.
My body wrapped in tortillas
to practice safe sex

while you stood naked on the bed, belligerent,
your arms outstretched to touch the ceiling.
Macchu Picchu frozen in the fridge

with thoughts of denigration,
with wings that reached to here, folded,
and the whole damn team rushing us.
