to death,
you have committed
a grat sin

taken a great men,
while sitting alone

His wife out for a walk
his family unaware

A great man with a
lumincent past

the world mours his passing

from Lisboa to Madrid
Madrid to Havana
Havana to Miami
Miami to New York


Dedicated to Manolo
my great uncle

1917-2000

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
