no help

Wednesday August 4, 2019

The cat jumps up onto the knees, stroke the small head and the back.

Read the news on the machine, the British rebellion, fascinating.

Then get up,

pick up the bag, the wallet

and the 'phone. go down the stairs and pass the tenants bicycle, and go out into

the cold dark early morning.

There is a big heap of yellow plastic bags in front of the door. They were put out last night.

Just past the police station there

is a young man, he looks distraught.

He asks for help, his car's battery has not enough power to start with.

Because there is none of the correct equipment available. no help is possible.

He-moves on.

The small black car is parked at the side of the park, the place where they will play boules during the day, later.

Get into the car, start the engine.

The day begins, again.
