instead

Wake in the dark, the time has been destroyed again, the early light has gone for some weeks more, fumble. The clothing, lying out from the last evening, all  there.

Bathroom, wash.

Find the car keys, pick up the plans for work

Street lights, bright and dry outside, street lights light the way up by the police station, around the bend, onward to the place where the car is kept.

Through the tunnel under the hill with the castle on it's crown.

Leave the town, drift through the countryside in the dark

all the way to work

half an hour

No time to write.

Half an hour's driving instead.
