Sights, Sounds, Smells

Los Parques

The dog walkers

Amorous couples lounge around

The super pancho vendor

Pigeons that fight over crumbs

The distant noises of a city

The cute outfit of the girl passing through

Beautiful arquitecture of the Facultad de Medicina building

Little kids with sticky faces from their dripping popsicles

A jack hammer rattles in the distance

The crazy homeless man feeding the birds next to me

Laughs and hoots of the hooligans under the tree

Cigarette fumes rising into the air

Students diligently studying

Mate drinkers

Girl singing along with her ipod

The florescent color my hi-lighter leaves on the page

A man playing his guitar

Little boy playing catch with his dad

Colectivo linea 132 coming to a screeching halt

Street performers juggling

Colorful playground in the trees

Boy tricking on his skateboard

The man with two young children asking for a few moneditas,

Complementing me on the color of my eyes

I come here to do homework,

But

Watching all these things is a lot more interesting,

Than my stack of papers to be read for class tomorrow
