africa.
 (timbuktu is the land without time)
 (and dogon country is a land of acceptance)
 (it's where kids are kids and play all day under the baobao trees)
 (and still have time for work too, of course.)
 (on the side of the "roads," there linger lots of crazy mystery drinks that are most likely not drinks at all but, in fact, motor oil)
 (but who needs mystery drinks anyway when you're in the desert?)
 (not us, for sure)
 (we definitely need showers though)
 (which is why we smile really big when clean)
 (except for my Herbert Humphrey. this stubborn fellow likes his dirt.)
Dieu a cree beaute dans afrique, dans le monde. je veux le voir tout avec son aide. la vie est belle dans la grace de Dieu.
