Able to taste the poem, smell and savor its flavor. Leaves me wondering though how iguana taste. This poem to read is the next best thing - is right next door to eating iguana, seasoned and cooked by his grandmother. This poem is also a filter through which I taste iguana, take in what I might be reluctant to eat actually. Along with this meal I get to smell and to taste history and it is how history often has to be served to who found or find history lessons unpalatable. This is sweet, history and geography and poetry wrapped up in iguana meat. I like it a lot, Christian’s “Iguana”. Able to taste the poem, smell and savor its flavor.
