It is difficult for me to describe the unpleasantness which is El Paso.
I would like to take a walk, to get out of the house, but where would i go?
I might walk along the sidewalks, sidewalks in front of small square suburban boxes. Most homes surrounded
by a fence or wall. many have three or four or five trucks--usually trucks, big trucks--parked in front.
dogs bark at me.
There are no trash cans. That is no public trash cans--indicating that walking is not desired or encouraged.
If I walk from my home to the Northgate bus transfer center, there are no public garbage cans along the way--a thirty minute walk.
I look at these houses when I walk to the bus stop, and I think: What is the point? To have your own little house with
your own little piece of grass?!
Sterile and anti-social. It's mine, mine, mine, all mine. No wonder these people continue their climate criminal
life style...
driving at the least whim...
driving large trucks here and there...
I prefer Vienna's crowded public transport--more frequent than El Paso's buses--to walking in the
blazing sun along the sidewalks as enormous trucks zoom by me in the obscenely large streets...
not civilization this
always a barren wilderness in the land of the free...
