Camino Inca
from Travels
By Nabil Abou Baker

Wak’ay Wilica – Veronica’s potent
Powerful peak piercing the sky ‘versing
With Inca’s sun. Snow resting on the peak
Wages war with the – white innocent – sick clouds,
Mirroring the tribal legend of the
Winay Wayna – the prince of Yunkas and
The princess of Antis forbidden love,
A class’ Shakespearean love – that ended
Tragically in Wilkamayu – sacred
River – the river that divided vicious
Vilcabamba from the other under
Powered Urubamba. But history
Played one mountain falling – to be reborn.
From Veronica fell Cuzco’s last tear.
