Southward Swans

I saw a pair of swans flying southwest, near sunset.

To where do two wild swans fly?
Maybe they're heading south for the oncoming Chilean summer,
South to the lakes district
South to where the land stops, and becomes rivers interspersed with pieces of soil,
with chunks of mountain that humbled themselves to become islands, all
To earn the name of fjords.  South,
To where fewer of humanity have arrived
to settle, Building building building, constantly building
Even here in little Pichilemu, the building starts at 8 AM and is still
going on when I return at six

Two wild swans can become six
in the Lakes District
in the River Region
in Patagonia, where the colors bite like the cold;
on down to Tierra del Fuego, to Ushuaia, Argentina.
Overlooking the Antarctic, flying over
the fearsome Strait of Magellan, where
Two oceans meet
and become One.
