Clouds and Moon



It B-Day, the invasion is near. Far at the background clouds move, they move slowly to reveal the ancient moon. The old moon that has seen man develop to its rise and fall. The ancient moon that has seen blood flow like water in rivers.

Lookout



Commanders criticize the horizon, hoping to find the any imperfection. Hoping to be the Paul Revere of their time.

Spotted!



From nowhere they come. They come to invade. maybe they come to take what was theirs?

The Real Inconvenient Truth


I'm from El Paso Texas and Juarez, Mexico. Over the past 10 years there have been over 500 women slayings in Juarez. The victims are women who work in the "maquilas". Maquilas are the byproduct of NAFTA, to get to the point maquilas is where we, US, get our cheap labor. Maquilas are companies that have left the US in search of cheap labor and exploitation.

Most of the of the workers of these maquilas are women. They are women who are housewives or underage girls who work to support their families. The sad news is that you can also find their decomposed lifeless bodies, half buried, mutilated, and unaccounted in the desert.


Surprisingly, nobody even cares. The border area, El Paso/Juarez is thriving in business and religion. Where is the Chuch, the protestants, pentecostal, or baptist? The only voice you hear in the street is that of the mothers of victims, only mothers! Where are the fathers?

People blame the police corruption. They say it's the work of a of serial killer(s). But the truth is that the killer is not too far away from us. The killer is the idea of what men thinks of women. Simply disposalble objects.
