Poemas del río Wang: After the Flood / Tras el Diluvio

http://riowang.blogspot.com/2015/05/after-flood.html

After the Flood / Tras el Diluvio. The Holy Trinity Church of Gergeti was built so high up, just beneath Kazbegi Peak, right under the “roof of the Caucasus”, that, just as they say about other sites – the San Apollinare in Classe in Ravenna, or some other prominent churches –, this alone was not inundated by the Flood. Thus the dinosaurs survived the great world catastrophe only here, and it is attested by the 12th-century window of the bell tower of the church. In the 4th century, so Gergeti, lying to ...

Poemas del río Wang: Cemeteries

http://riowang.blogspot.com/2011/11/cemeteries.html

The cemetery is a necro-polis, the city of the dead, where, as in the fairy tale, everything is opposite to how it is in life.
