Dim,and grey, it is the day's start, it is time to get up and to get ready for work. Make an appointment with the doctor during the day sometime. A resolution.
The cat comes in, purring, friendly, lies down on it's back on the floor, there, between the freshly washed bare feet. The cat wants it's head scratched, it wants food, it wants attention.
In order. Go to the kitchen cupboard and get a plaster for the cut on the thumb. Apply the plaster, and think about the removal of glass from old window frames,and about the use of gloves.
The cat is fooled, it thinks that it will get food now. That is it, there is no more than a disappointed meow. Cat noises, cat speech. Pick up the bags, the pads o coffee for the machine at work, and leave the house.The watch is not set correctly today, hurry, the bus, and ultimately the train, will not wait. Walk down the alley, at the church there is the young woman with the top knot on her head coming the other way. She has an early shift today. Perhaps she works at the police station at the other end of the alley.. There is a man in medieval costume standing at the bus stop, a trombone over his shoulder, a sackbutt, The pageant is over, and there was a big party in the night. More such figures approach, all dressed in some early renaissance style. A nun in her habit walks up the street her working clothes match their attire suits the attire of the historic party goers. this... There is Dolores, she has an ancient flair too.
The Landshut pageant celebrating that wedding with the Polish Princess in 1479, or '76 is past and finished for the next four years.
On the bus, the girl applies her makeup,without smudging, without mistake,despite the swaying and jolting of the bus.
and at the railway station the smoker smokes, with his pigtail and his rucksack,
get coffee, sit in the café for ten minutes and wait for the train. write these notes,
start in the station,
continue on the train, and finish.
Now! as the train approaches Freising.
At twenty five past six. On hour and twenty. five minutes off the tally for the day.
