a man in a green


a man in a green
poncho pushes a wheelbarrow
past the blue school gate

On the steep streets of Aguas Calientes beyond the train tracks, there are no cars, no trucks, no mototaxis, not even triciclos, the three-wheel bike taxis. Wheelbarrows are the main mode for transporting goods. Everything about this tiny town is colorful: the school's bright blue gate and yellow walls painted with murals, the man's grass-green rain poncho, even the plastic bags bulging with potatoes.
