Damascus, Syria 2010
A laborer works in a small manufacturing business in the bowels of an ancient building. He is hammering out some metal object. He has no desk. He must work crouched on the floor.
There were underground stables in the souk where small horses stood tethered in darkness until needed to pull carts through the city streets. I watched a cart enter the portal and I followed it. A man took me down the long sloping hall to the stables. I wanted to cry when I saw the horses.
