I’d never been south of the border
before my recent journey
I am an American
dyslexically & geographically
confused after crossing
the Rio Grande
Somehow I found myself
on Highway BR-111 seeking
compassless destinations
Lost upon
The Rio Plata
broke in Montevideo
With this postage due note
I regret to inform you
they’ll be shall be no
postcards from Paraguay
