In the middle of the jungle, its pyramids rise dilapidated as a reaffirmation of an enigmatic and powerful past, with time the trees have grown among the sculpted stones with undulating shapes; it does not destroy it, it revives it, with the complex intervention of the leaves and branches that do not stop at the weight of the rocks.

The animals walk between the buildings like the reincarnation of the old settlers, disappeared in another time.

At dawn the roars of the monkeys are heard, like an invocation to the Sun God, who paints snakes with the shadows while rising through the sky.

I try to imagine how everything was, the colors of the buildings, the clothes of the people, the ceremonies that took place in the temples, but my imagination is enough, I need some way to be able to return in time, to look with my eyes as it was all before being abandoned, before the villagers disappeared or became the animals that walk among them.
