Dramas

Just as I think I’m calmer, this past weekend, it's Full Moon time and things happen: 

Friday Night

 

I am asleep in my room somewhere after three AM.

 

I hear a car hoon roar approach outside.

 

Weekends at night there is occasionally a speeder, thankfully they go by fast.

 

This one loudly goes crunch into the cars outside my place.

 

Hoon tries to re-start car, red car, two lots of cops, talk, lights, no sirens, They knock, one of the cars is neighbours’, show them neighbours’ place, come inside, Scrap at the window watches the lights, fascinated and the tow truck next she watches,and me, coward I am, inside, listening.

 

I can’t find my glasses and I don’t think of the camera, not once.

 

 

I concentrate on good things for a long time and around he time of dawn when birds are singing, I dream that I am riding with good horses and good friends.
