Joy Shopping in Nogales, Mexico — Image by kenne
You walk past the stalls,
shirts, saints, silver rings—
everything waiting to be chosen.
But it’s the shadows
that cling to you,
as if they know your name.

It seemed the better way
When first I heard him speak
Now it’s much too late
To turn the other cheek
Sounded like the truth
Seemed the better way
Sounded like the truth
But it’s not the truth today
— from It Seemed the Better Way by Leonard Cohen
Nogales Marketplace Shadows — Photo-Artistry by kenne
Handmade crafts in dark passageways
Damn me not I make a better fool
Just killing time, not looking to buy
In the tourists’ area of Nogales, Sonora
Where a horde of voices and unwed girls
Keep trying to get my attention as I
Think about a poem I will never write
Of delight that binds us from birth to death.

Shopping in Nogales — Photo-Artistry by kenne
A walk through the shops
You can find most anything
Very organic.
