cat flap

Wednesday 20th March, 2019
The cat jumps up onto the knees, stretches and lies down on the black trousers. Scratch her head.
After a while she jumps down to the ground again, and goes away. There is a sound from the cat
flap, she is on her way to the cat tray.
The legs are heavy, movement is slow. Age is making itself felt, the morning is too early.
Say 'good Morning' to Dolores at the bus stop. She is in pain, because of her leg.
The bus ride, the bus is crowded today. There is no smoker on the space before the railway station.
And the woman serving in the cafe has the coffee made without a word of greeting or even an order. Just wordlessly handed over the counter.

Later, from the train. a big moon is visible, just over the hills on, either side of the river valley..
It is huge, it looks full.
And sleep wants to return, to take over the body that belonged to it. but a short while ago.
