From the author:
I have nothing for sale here. These poems are gifts.

Duende2112?
"Duende" (Spanish) has many meanings. It can mean goblin, gremlin, sprite, or elf. It is also a special type of gold-woven fabric ... then there is Garcia Lorca's definition, but there isn't room enough here for that.
    "2112" is the title of an album by the Canadian rock-music group RUSH.
