L'aura del Campo

Are we there yet? [168]

Are we there yet?

A few photos on the beach
a waste of money
if you march in and out
and don't stop to breathe
the heavy humidity
my aching legs
Blue/red harlequin crabs
sloth in a tree
mapaches prowl
a pizote steals
a bag of sandwiches
cara blancas groom each other
one eats an iguana
lizards pose and watch us
hermit crabs scuttle
through leaf litter
and fallen fruit
non-edible, toxic
you eat one
silly
the exit's blocked
we retrace our steps
walk slowly
Are we there yet?
stone drive
raised boardwalk
my aching legs
force me to sit
you prop me up
Can you carry me?
you smile
make sure I'm okay

Are we there yet?
