Read the covid warning mounted on the opticians glazed door, a note on masks and distance
four people inside two at the back of the shop having glasses fitted, one with an attendant at the counter,
looking at glasses . Ask the attendant for a refill of the fluid for cleaning the glasses.
She points to the bottle on the wall, the bottle inverted, the bottle fitted with a barman's dispenser for shots of spirits. Hold the small plastic bottle so that it pushes up against the dispenser, watch it fill.
Screw on the lid, say than you, and
leave the shop.
And take the long road to the park.
Pass the shopping mall, then the entrance to the tunnel, then the Romanian orthodox church, all the way up the Bernlochner way. Follow the gravel path all the way to the top of the hill.
And sit there, catching the lost breath and watching the water birds and the crows behind the fence
Returning home meet the librarian at the bottom of the hill. He is talking about his pension, and all seems well with him.
That is nice
