Among the many colorful gods of the Aztec empire, Huehuecoyotl or Old Man Coyote (Huehue = old man), was a shape-shifting god of merriment and magic and sexual energy. Although he was an incorrigible trickster, often playing pranks that could turn cruel, he bestowed special gifts of song, dance, stories, and poetry. In the Coyote Kiva, Huehuecoyotl is celebrated as the icon of poets, the Ancient Voice that speaks for those in silence, the Spirit Voice that wails for justice in a broken world, the Sacred Belly Voice that roars with laughter at human folly, and the Embracing Voice that whispers love songs to the night.

Here we find Huehuecoyotl's Sons and Daughters, speaking in all his brightness and darkness, his sorrow, joy, wisdom, and truth. Poets from all over the world contribute to this seat in the kiva. Their works are presented according to topic.

Dum vivimus, vivamus!
