12/11/04: It ain't easy living like a gypsy


Perhaps the best way to re-inaugurate this little project
is to explain the past six months. After
returning from a place where I've long dreamed
of living, I somehow ended up in the last place on Earth I'd ever think of being, a place I would've thought I hated. And it's possibly the rich part of Texas that I hate, the red state part, the Houston
part of Texas, the Huntsville part with that prison, the Midland part with the Bushes. I haven't been to any of those places yet. I still think I'd hate them. But on arriving to the wide open nothing part, I re-read over a couple of lines by Wim Wenders's Once, where the German filmmaker noted with sad delight that nothing could be more sad and charming than an old cowboy.



Here, in the dusty southwest, where buying food from a proper grocery store requires a 5-hour day trip, I've found I surprising sort of comfort here. Here, away from
those jackhammer cities, I can think with such clarity that the books I read become as clear and sharp in my head as if there were my own memories. I've started cutting my teeth on short stories my Machado de Assis in their original Portuguese and am surprised at how smoothly I can flow through them. Soon the hysterical
Machado will have his own voice in my head too - one that can speak to my own calm detatchment.



I'll get antsy soon too, of course. I'm still an urban bird and still feel naked without tall walls, comfortably anonymous. And I still long for the giddy excitement I felt soaking in the delightful madness of Sao Paulo. It'll be interesting how vivd the city will become when I can finally return - just like the hysterically lucid feeling you have returning home from a foreign country where once again you understand
every single English word chattered around at once.



And so with a calm surrender, I'll bridge the 6-month gap in the Betacorpo blog with some scenes from playing about these hot, silent spaces over the past summer.





Presidio, Texas

Lastly, I rather crudely made all of this blog's images
quickly available with that little Images link on the
sidebar, if in you want to randomly pick out a couple of prior adventures.
