The New Schools Poem by Roque Dalton
The New Schools
In ancient Greece
Aristotle taught philosophy to his disciples
while they walked across a large courtyard.
Because of this his school was called "the peripatetic."
Fighting poets
are peripateticker than those Aristotelian peripatetics
because we apprehend the philosophy and poetry of the people
while traveling
through the cities and mountains of our land.
Translated from the Spanish by Jack Hirschman.
