The plastic hose hangs from his mouth. It is plugged into the drum in front of him, like an oxygen line breathing life into the instrument. He beats the skin of the drum, eyes following the notes on the score in front of him, glimpsing the movements of the other percussionists on stage, the members of the Third Coast Percussion. He needs to be in tempo with them, too. He breathes into the hose, a soft but constant flow, and as the pressure inside the drum increases, the pitch changes.

Es una mujer y un árbol, una gota de lluvia en la Antártida. Es una esposa que despide al marino en el puerto de Santa María en el siglo XVI. Es la hija y la hermana y la abuela de esa mujer española. Es la sed de un migrante, la mujer engañada que dejó a su familia y trabaja sin descanso ni libertad en un país del Norte Global. Es la flama que se esparce por el bosque y devora la grama, es el incendio que destruye yates y mansiones. Es la furia del planeta.
