And even from the air -I knew
Brown rusty roofing
Filthy esteros
Garbage magically strewn in mystic corners
Vehicles at a standstill
Smog
I was home
I could hardly wait to feel the blast of heat
Sweat like a pig
Swat the flies away
Inhale the dust
Early evening gridlock
Car horns blasting for every unknown reason
Traffic enforcers pretending to control the roads
Jeepneys zipping in and out
Buses stopping wherever they want
Dilapidated cars proposing to be taxis
Mendicants tapping on my window
Graffiti
Stray cats, dogs ...
and ooooops even a rat crossing my path
Goshhhh - I missed home
I am so glad to be back.
