The room seems to shake and vibrate with motion. The blood and substance of many races, Negro, Polynesian, Mountain Mongol, Polyglot Near East, Indian, - races as yet unconceived and unborn, combinations not yet realized pass through your body. migrations, incredible journeys through deserts and jungles and mountains (stasis and death in closed mountain valleys where plants grow out of genitals, vast crustaceans hatch inside and break the shell of the body ) across the Pacific in an outrigger canoe to Easter Island. The composite city where all human potentials are spread out in a vast silent market. Minarets, palms, mountains, jungle...a sluggish river jumping with vicious fish.
