Left Over Material #1

With the arrival of 2007, I've begun cleaning out the RecenteringElPueblo edit files, loaded with abandoned writings, unaccompanied photos, and unrealized ditties.





I had hoped to write a piece comparing real estate agents to forcados (a group of eight who seek, without weapons or props, to engage, surround and stymie the bull). I took digital stills at a bullfight at the Portuguese Community Center in Artesia. I can't at all remember the point, nor do I think it was clever.




I may have also became uncomfortable with the comparison after one of the curanderos (the second in line), was knocked unconscious, trampled, and taken by stretcher to a local hospital.



Still, it'd be a shame not to use the snaps, eh?
