Iron Market in Haiti
"As far from heaven as Haiti", the saying goes.
Yet all around the Iron Market in
Port-au-Prince finds Piere Barra, scultptor,
lace, straw, steel, plastic; forlorn objects lost;
sometime thrown away by the Maîtres,
Masters of consumption,
who ejected them from Eden.
Dentelle, plastique, des épingles, coraux,
os, bois, ivoire, et noyaux.
--
translation last 2 lines:
lace, plastic, pins, coral
bone, wood, ivory, and nuts.
