Stop it!! turn it off anyhow, somehow.

Dread the cheerful seaside melody from the small telephone by the bedside

Stop it!! turn it off anyhow, somehow.

Wash
This is awful, howling tinnitus, exhaustion, bad taste on the teeth.
Comb the hair, put the wallet into the shirt pocket.
Forget to include the mobile 'phone


Sick today, but go to  work
anyway

there is unusual activity in the main street, with people hurrying in all different dirctions. Thereis more activity everywhere.
More than usual
Dolores is at the bus stop, wish her good morning
Pay the driver, a bald-headed man with a moustache.
Strange, Dolores, who had got on first, offers a seat, without a word, with a bow. Why? There is no need. There are still enough free seats available.., and there would be no seat owing, anyhow. First on first served.
strange occurrence, an woman of maybe fifty offering a man of sixty a seat on a bus.
There is an woman in the bus, from Africa, dressed in a black trouser suit with her hair cut short, barely one centimetre long. She grins.
What is going on?.
Too tired and too sick to think about all of this any further. When the bus halts at the station, let the woman with the hair and the suit out first.
At the cafe, order a coffee, pay for it, listen to the short haired womans order being misunderstood. Instead of coffee, ham.
Puzzlement on the part of the woman, she had spoken clearly, after all. How could one mis- hear "Kaffee" for "Schinken"?

Letitbe.
after all.
See pictures on television of Gabriel erecting a middle finger,-pointing it at a Nazi protester.

        Have they all gone mad?
