blue skies, blue sea

and sand all around

my dad's land is now growing

maize, frijoles and sweet potatoes.

 There he is above, with my sister,

filming the surfers at pastora.

the waves have

been huge.

 at night, our windows

rattle with the shore break.

he got claustrophobic

when there were too

many trees around.

being on top of the world,

places of long vistas

and

wide   open   spaces

Paris 1962

before les halles,

the "belly of paris"

was torn down

for 800 years

les halles was the

central wholesale

market of paris

 

brewing revolution

with its pungent cheeses,

loitering thieves, lively cafés

and jungle of steel arcades.

through every vein of the city"

what are
your tools?

just 1 prop
