Cock fighting


I've had some fun "Welcome home, Kez" greetings when I'm walking into my neighborhood, but this one was definitely the most unexpected: a circle of excited onlookers and in the middle, 2 roosters trying to kill each other. Usually the men on the corner drink kleren (Haitian moonshine) and play dominoes, but apparently they were looking for some better entertainment that particular day. It made for interesting photos, but I can't say I'm a real fan of cock fighting. There's something very sad about watching two animals be poked and prodded back into a battle that they clearly do not want to participate in.



Let's stick with playing dominoes, guys.
