There is no reason to be glad, but why be sad?

8 July 2016
Scramble, scrambling sound as the cat comes in
through the open window. A head pat, a purr, and
then the cat goes on to check out the kitchen.
A friendly cat.
The front door to the house has been left open, the
corridor is full of bicycles, and a bench. This is
just stuff left around, scattered idly.
Flocks of pigeons at the town gate, Teacher man
there too. The sunlight on the river, reflected from the sky.
Impressions of time before the mind is entirely present. Is
this depression, or what? It is not raining. Chover-the
Portuguese verb for 'to rain! E sol! It is not raining.
Railway station'. The pig tailed smoker, smokes
in the morning. The girl with the many tatoos
serves the coffee. silent television, german coach with
serious face..
The Rosenheim train has arrived, it is blocking the view
of all the other platforms now. cup of coffee.
The tinnitus, right, is almost gone. Did it serve on
some kind of fours? All is confusion.
On the railway platform, a young woman of, at the
best, thirty, black shirt shoes, tights. Hair. And smiling . happy. simple clothing, fitting perfectly. But all black,



oh.

The train is called "Landau". It moves in slowly, the people queue to board, barely letting those arrivals disembark.
All on board, and the days journey begins..
There is no reason to be glad, but why be sad?
