                          en Roc Arenisca



Monolithic block of calcium

en barro cocida,



Half-man size image

reclining a bit to the black

huge head of giant eyes

like spyglasses

and ears' exception

ally without earrings,



Broad and full mouth

or too two lips

but still effective hole

where is supposed

to utter speech,



Broken nose flattering head

to receding headdress unto

below protruding words,



Right arm hanging

down along body

left arm holding

trophy head

just before belly

of make believe western

accounts of pre-Columbian

areal legs indiscernible as

indeed covered by shorts.
