waiting for shoppers


waiting for shoppers
a vendor sits among squash,
carrots, striped ponchos

This vendor at the big Sunday Pisac farmer's market is quite modern in her appearance, from unbraided hair to hoodie, rolled-up jeans and canvas shoes. Yet she is surrounded by traditional hand-woven ponchos, heirloom squash, a bundle of cilantro and small, sweet Andean carrots. Ah, those delicious little carrots!
