Day and night, life and death are sometimes seen as opposites of each other. But they can also be understood as falling in a continuum, one containing the other. In this wonderful pair of poems by noted Argentine/Mexican poet Jorge Lujan, both ideas are expressed. An Apple in the Apple Orchard describes a young boy and girl in the early morning playing a sort of hide-and-seek amongst the apple trees. Pale As Bone takes the same children on a carousel ride where a Lady-as-Pale-as-a-Bone is trying to choose whom to take with her.
