A statue took the bus last night

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

Rio street artist, her name's Vanda. She was kind enough to let me take her pic. Pardon the blurriness - taking pics inside a bus is fucking hard. When you think it stopped and you can take a good shot, there it goes moving again.

Edit: she asked me to post her contact info whenever I post the pic on the internets. Phone [phone], e-mail [e-mail] - hey, if you ever come to Brazil and want to decorate your hotel room with a living statue, here's how!

1. Your topic line is beautiful iambic tetrameter!

2. Uh... that means the topic line has two verses, right?

And what's "iambic?"

3. Oddly enough, it means it has four feet!

It has four pairs of unstressed-accented syllables. Shakespeare often wrote in iambic pentameter, with five pairs per line.

I thought your topic line read like the first line of a beguilingly odd poem.
