the persuasive pitch
the salesman of their own creations and crafts
paintings and sketches were of the great incas
woolen miniature souvenirs and jewelries handmade
"for 10 soles each"
words that came out of the local
the dancers of their own city
their body and soul flowing with the rhythm of the band
swaying into the incan universe
"come join us, for 5 soles each"
words that came out of the local
so tell me how you generate your income?
brag to me about how fortunate you are
tell me how alive you are
are you as alive as these locals?
