a friend's reunion


summer is fixed for a friend's reunion.

at rey's house. a narrow path leads us

to a big house under some old trees.

coconut palms lining the horizontal view.

some flowers grow. some fruits hanging

on branches. many of us are coming

to try to see something new about rey

and his big house. progress of a friend.

boasting and some news. how he did

and what he does well, with success.

golden spoons and golden forks.

silver plates. expensive wine. shiny

glassess. cheers. more cheers to a friend's

success. we are happy. we are here.

we are invited to speak nicely of him.

remembering the old times. high school

laughters. ( i was the standard bearer

of the class and rey was nobody. the

clown. the mediocre. yet look at him

now with his promising stance. cheers

for his success. his arrogance. his fame.)

time passes too quickly. everyone is tipsy.

the women and men of my own time.

the last episode is this picture taking.

i will find my own place here. rey is the

star of all these shows. it is a drunken night.
i will not steal it away from him. he smiles

from end to end. he spends for this

magic moment of his life. we say. we

swear we all love him. we say cheers!


click! and this is all simplest that we get.
