On the corner of República del Salvador and Pino Suarez, the Old Palace of the Counts of Santiago de Calimaya, now the Museum of Mexico City, a Mexica snake appears with its huge jaws that eternally only peeks out from the depths of the earth. and it seems not to finish liking what is out there, especially the indifference of these modern macehuales who spend their stress and never stop to watch it, even when they lean on it while waiting for someone in that corner or when they use it to rest a little while supporting some heavy box with merchandise acquired in the Center.
Centuries trapped under a colonial construction, created by Aztec hands more than half a millennium ago to adorn some temple of the Great Tenochtitlan, when all of us here now cease to exist and even several generations more, will remain invulnerable and one day will be freed from his imprisonment.
