São Paulo Freeway Painting on Corner Bookshelf in Study — Image by kenne
A motorbike stitches between lanes
like a bright needle,
mending the frayed fabric of the day.
Somewhere, beyond the press of engines,
a street vendor sings out
names of fruits that no longer grow here—
cupuaçu, graviola, pitanga—
and for a moment, the entire freeway
smells of rain in the Amazon.
