#sidewalk
They’re a hindrance.
Snaking alongside the streets with their
Crooked edges
Where I live, you know life is good
When you don’t have to take the sidewalk.
As I wander through old stones and dark, loved places,
I want to be
Alone,
to hear the city like a fading drum
Played by June’s lazy heat.
The high walls are the best concert hall for my humming soles
And it feels best, alone with your mind, to wander
Where cars don’t push you against the sidewalk’s slither.

Just a doodle of a girl standing there looking rad.
Couldn’t draw that day and didn’t want to get three behind.

René Robert (4 march 1936 - 20 janvier 2022)
The flamenco photographer, René Robert, dies frozen before the indifference of passers-by after suffering a fall in the middle of Paris.
René Robert captured the magic of Camarón, the heel tapping of Manolo Marín and the transience of Paco de Lucía. The French-Swiss photographer who made history through the images he took of flamenco, and who He died at the age of 84.
An artist who, for more than 50 years, captured the essence of flamenco art, in black and white images that exude art and aesthetics. However, although his life was based on lights, fringes and celebration, his death has been tragic, as he froze to death on a main street in Paris, after suffering a fall and losing consciousness. As reported by the journalist Michel Mompontent, Robert’s close friend, died after lying on the ground for several hours.
Robert went for a walk after dinner on Turbigo Street, located in the heart of Paris, around 9 at night. During this path, he collapsed unconscious on the sidewalk, and remained there until 6:30 in the morning (He dies for nine hours on the sidewalk!) when a homeless man called an ambulance to help him. However, he was in an extremely serious condition, with head injuries and severe hypothermia, for which he was transferred to the emergency room, but did not survive.
Murdered by indifference…
Rest in Power !
