Sunset

Skies blue with no clouds over São Paulo. Looking at the city from the 19th floor makes it seem so calm, almost desert. Sun going down, turning horizon in purple. Down there, ants-like people drag bags.

A bird of prey perchs on a nearby building. The State of São Paulo's flag on the top of Banespa seems to be huge. Serra of Cantareira rises on landscape background. And a gray fog hovers all over the gray city. Sé's vault is very near, I can distinguish the bricks.

That wonderful view is what I have beside my desk on work. I like to look at it everyday, but I'll change it for Brasília, next year. Dry, far and hot, but that's where my goal remains.
