Mirador de San Nicolás

How beautifully futile
it is.
This taking of photos
with a sideways glance
against an ancient wind
to sweep the hair
across a face
barely touched by years.

Yet we march.
Hours, days, eras
to grab this moment,
to deceive,
in a look
to displace,
this place we've been
this place we've loved
this place, stained to the soul;
this place.
