しずかな週末

[Yomgui]

今朝、ジョギングをした。本当に！いい天気だったから、「La Villette」まで走りました。とてもきれいだった。写真を撮った。その所に古い詩(し)を覚えていました :NEW YORK - EDWARD FIELDI live in a beautiful place, a citypeople claim to be astonishedwhen you say you live there.They talk of junkies, muggings, dirt and noise,missing the point completely.I tell them where they live it is hell,a land of frozen people.They never think of people.Home, I am astonished by this environmentthat is also a form of naturelike those paradises of trees and grassbut this is a people paradisewhere we are the creatures mostlythough thank God for dogs, cats, sparrows and roaches.This vertical place is no more an accidentthan the Himalayas are.The city needs all those tall buildingsto contain the tremendous energy here.The landscape is in a state of balance.We do God's will whether we know it or not:Where I live the streets end in a river of sunlight.(...)EDWARD FIELD - 1977
