Reading for Pleasure Wednesday: The Ants

me he corrido con las hiedras,
al ver la azul caravana
de las piedras,
de las piedras,
de las piedras…

–C.V.

In the tropics, the ants arrive quickly, furiously, and voraciously to each new event. That is why the last scion of the Buendía tribe is always already being eaten by the ants.

Axé.
