Rajasthan, India. 1991-1996
Sand, wind, sun, silence, clay, dust.
And, suddenly, the buses.
Transport or shelter?
More like mobile oases.
The temple in the cabin:
the watchful gods.
The sun sneaks in and reaches
cinnamon and clove skins;
eyes of honey, of sea, of olive.
Veils and turbans, impossible colors.
Ephemeral family: passengers.
A smile, a gesture;
millenary glances, stony faces.
A bronze contact.
The gathering dissolves in the music,
and the desert, the aridity, is forgotten.
Some enter, others leave.
The brotherhood, changing, remains.
From village to village, on the desolate roads.
Long and short journeys;
each one arrives at his destination.
Time passes; the journey is over.
The only thing that remains
is the memory -and the photos-
of some routes and some characters,
passengers.
