back in 1476

now after awakening, after the shower , tiredness and drowsiness. Not awake at all, there is just the wish to go back to sleep, back to the land of nod, the time of dislocated thoughts, strange connections in dreams, things related that have no relations in reality.
Stay up, into the big sitting room to write these notes.
The head vertiginous, the eyes not focusing properly.

to bed so early and awake so early

Hear the street cleaning machines outside.
Because of all the festivities in the town, there is more dirt, more litter on the street.
There are many strangers in the town, guests of the pageant, the reenactment of that wedding back in 1476

And then all is silent, but for the ticking of the clocks.
Lie down on the couch until the son's alarm clock sounds,

Then get up.
After such a short rest things are a bit better.

It is the doctor's day today, the day of the check up, the day that will hopefully pass with no bad news.

Pat the cats head as it passes by on it's way to the window.
It likes to sit in the window and watch the traffic.
It likes to watch the birds fly past.
