The stench of sweaty bamboo hit the nose
Green stripes something frsh something rotten
Monocotyledon leaves straightveins
focus and up and downs
the tropical moutain jungle behind
We ate hungrily, green glow around the tented restaurant
rain pitter pattering cicadas and insects click and rattle
The evil far off wilderness Jacu bird meowing
A fierce tegu lizard blinking at the splash of raindrops
Thunder erupted as we finished our last mouthfuls
Of trout black rice and cooked monkey puzzle nuts
We went out onto the deserted street in that town lost in the mountains
No taxis, no uber and a bout a forty five kilometers from home
