Outings

Poor children—they're all tired
of the walking. The French

children, the Italian children,
the children of the Néo-

Zélandaise—they're all tired.
The feminine beach and the

masculine garden, the boy dogs
and the girl cars; they've been

past them all. They have
fatigue. They want to go home

to their motherly houses.
This little one, why, he has

so much hunger he doesn't
rain, he pours.
