Antes las historias que rondaban este lugar eran más personal. Cada acto de convivencia se relataba, fastidiosamente, formando una continúa cadena de una vida algo típica (entre amigos, buena comida y fantásticas conversaciones). Lo mundano en su constante monotónia me hastió y las historias tomaron otro rumbo y a la vez su número disminuyó. Las […]
Polybius should be praised for his sagacity, for although his perspicacity failed him with regards to the Pontus and the eventual transformation of the Euxines into a freshwater lake, it was spot on in his expatiation on Byzantium. He was able to grasp not only the strategic value of this place, but also what ultimately […]
As I showered I realized: I’m leaving America. As I lay in bed, anew the same realization. And as I strolled down the street, making my way to the park nearby, I lost myself in contemplation. There is a primeval feeling to the redwood trees that stand guard along one side of the park facing […]
A veces es posible expresar un sentimiento con una palabra. Y lo que siento es odio — un odio intenso. En el horizonte veo al agosto, escalándole pesada- y arduosamente. Aún está por iniciar y ya en él se detectan las señas de la consunción. Los pocos días que restan para que su arribo son […]

Again, it is with digust that I read the headlines. Unsatisfied with committing genocide in the name of ‘security’ against the Palestinian — the bastard children of the Arab peoples — Israel has set its eyes upon Lebanon. I have no sympathy for Hizbullah as it is supported by Iran and Syria, but again Israel […]
I have never been one for living life vicariously. To some extent, I have chosen to lead a rather circumscribed existence. I do confess to having a predilection for the rôle of observer — it is always more delightful. It is not necessarily that i am indifferent to the world. Just yesterday I felt revolt […]
Home is where the heart is, so they say. And to a large extent I have begun to believe. I believe not because I need to, but because I want to. At one point I admitted: I simply wish to return to San Francisco and satiate my eyes with the beauty of the Pacific Ocean. […]
Spring came around and the world was transformed, metamorphosed into a wonderland of effulgent green. This is what I recall and when I look back at the photos, I feel a tug at my heart. Without compunction I can say that I miss both the good and the bad; such has been my tendency. They […]
