Evo-cation
Evo-cation The first glaciers disappeared in Bolivia while I was listening to my shadow repeat that poem about a man fingering his woman. How often must we watch animals going about their reproductive business? Do we need to stare? As I heard the rain crowding out of every cloud in Bolivia a vision appeared: Habra took out his sword and attacked the honey-scented silhouette of Fatimah. She fell off her horse and died soon after. Bolivia cried: Evo-cation! The credits read: Tupaj Katari- dead Citizens of the city of El Alto – massacred Coca farmers – Mano Negra, like all the other anonymous heroes from from El Sur. Pututu blasted the longest minute this year while blood drenched the Legislative Power, damned butchers sitting like peacocks on the balcony. © Sergio A. Ortiz 2006
