For the tractor driver, I become his landscape. For countless generations, his family has seen pilgrims travers his farm.
For me, he makes the landscape with his tractor. What must he think of me with endless hours to walk and of himself with endless hours to work?

Women in floral dressing gowns.
Men in blue pajamas.
Feeling more privacy in a mixed dorm,
Than a room for two with an unknown man.
