Both arms open, the machete and the rattle
A man with black pigment opens both arms in the street. In one hand the machete points upward and in the other he holds a rattle. He wears a headdress with red feathers and a green skirt.
The blade is long and light. The rattle is a cluster of round, light pieces. The brown sandals are still on his feet. His shadow falls on the concrete, to the right. Behind him are the grass, the pole, and a light. No one else is in the frame. It is night.
