It´s All Happening

take off, land
take off, land
tin-covered food
ear popping
up-right sleeping
suitcase dragging
slow, excruciating cab rides
fast, life-threatening cab rides
bus rides
wrong ways
labyrinth maps
hostels
hard pillows
hard water
sore feet
sleep. sleep. sleep.
Stella Artois, Beer Singha, Antarctica, Quilmes
bottles and bottles and bottles of water
strong coffee
dizzy digestion
ferrys, boats, tuk tuks
parks
"Oh, you`re American? Oh, you must be George Bush."
dripping with sweat and icy cold
world weary, fascinated
homesick, tantric
"What`s the time change?"
"What`s the exchange?"
Pound. Euro. Dollar. Baht. Dong. Real. Peso.
"No, I don´t want that t-shirt."
dreams of far faces
dirty clothes
dirty nails
beautiful sunsets
beautiful photos to send home:
cliffs, blue water, unaware natives
breathing deep
gravesites/monuments/histories unknown
Pöt passa Thai dai. Pode fala Portugues. Puedo hablar Español.
Where`s my passport?
Where`s my wallet?
Where`s my home?
