Essaouira and Lourika 2023

Essaouira!
The antique Mogador,
And from further away still Thamussida,
Slashing the uncertain air and a whip of light
In violet blue that cracks.

By climbing even higher, I gaze upon verdant cultures and berbers inhabitants. A luminous green which clashes in the middle of reddish lands.
I feel quite small in the middle of this arid, immense, wild, and rocky vastness.
It’s very impressive to see than mankind has built these immense boulders which are one with the mountain.
