back to a blue wall


back to a blue wall
a man in blue jeans reads
the morning paper


Early morning, Calle 8 Norte, half a block from the beach -- a man in work clothes, quietly reading his paper, looks up at a tourist looking back at him. The smiling tourist reflected in the glass door seems to be thinking, "What a colorful local character." The man's resigned expression seems to say, "La temporada turistica."
