Did not get to
"the most beautiful beach in Ecuador"
although it's only
an hour or so away
from my little beach hideaway.
Did not get to
the indigenous town
fresh breezes, history, sulfur springs
near
"the most beautiful beach in Ecuador."
Last day
no desire to adventure out
away from my shady hammock
above the ocean
except
to wrap myself
middle-eastern style
against the sun
and take a long walk
to sample the famed
corviche
at a shack that's renowned for it.
The dough is made with ground peanuts
(peanut butter?)
molded into a potato shape
around fish or shrimp or chicken
and deep fried.
Looks like a potato, in fact
and you cut it open baked potato style
to eat it with a squeeze of lime
or hot salsa
crunchy, gooey, muy rico
with a tall glass of lemonade.
And now it's time to go home.
Wet bathing suit in backpack.
The end.
