What Are You Doing Here?

By Alex Appella
Icho Cruz, Argentina: Transient Books, 2003. Open Edition (Discontinued).

5.5 x 4.25". Of the decision made by one US citizen to continue living in a crisis-stricken, unstable Argentina.

'What are you doing here?'

Argentina asks me everyday.
'We're all trying to leave and you come to live here?'
They ask, and ask again.
'But why would you ever want to live here?'
Sometimes I respond, sometimes I invent, sometimes I ask back.
'What are you doing here, in the middle of all this mess?'
Sometimes I really have no answer at all.
