A Memory 6. You Were an Ocean.
what do you see? you ask. whisper. i am halfwake and halfway in the ocean. gurgled seafoams.
tell me what you see. what is keeping you awake.
i see light. the rest is dark. you are wrapped in lines.
venetian blinds make like clouds and hide us from the neighbors.
i hope by morning i can spit up the sand in my mouth and tell you you are beautiful.

"Each set of journalistic eyes is conditioned and shaped by family upbringing, church and school training; is invariably limited by time, place, and the specific condition of the writer's social development; and is inevitably stamped with the unconscious imprint of his or her class, race, and gender. Each set of eyes necessarily becomes a flawed prism, partial or subjective by its very nature, through which the writer filters and then recreates an exceedingly complex reality. The battle to record history as it happens — from a divergent, sometimes unpopular view rather than from a consensus perspective already diluted by self-censorship — is the essential challenge to journalists in a modern capitalist democracy."
Juan González, Puerto Rican journalist who covered the LA Riots
