TULA & CO.
When Tula falls asleep without blowing out the candle, her bedroom naturally catches fire. Thus goes the song El Cuarto de Tula, prominent in the repertoire of every Cuban street musician.
¡Ay, mama! ¿Qué pasó?
Confusion abounds as the firefighters arrive with their bells and sirens and everyone tries to douse the flames.
Whither Tula? Whither Cuba?
Cuba, 2012
"El cuarto de Tula,
le cogió candela.
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela."
-- Sergio Eulogio Gonzales y Siaba
