IN THE BLUR OF A VAST BOULEVARD

A sewer mouth spews smoke. Trucks, cars, scooters roar on the avenue in both directions. I stand on a narrow strip of yellow grass, right in the middle. I’m caught in a heat wave. The ochre dust flies in dry clouds on this Cairo artery, and whips my face. I don’t see very far. I do know, however, that the pyramids are not too far, waiting. I’m going to cross.
