Wander

She wanders around her new neighbourhood.

 The houses, the pavements, the trees, the sounds 

errupting

  surrendering their secrets.

 She walks for hours

 she does not want to stop.

Never

Never thought she was going to live here for so long. It started as a refuge, it is now home. 

her father

Her father left home when she was five. He took with him the cat and the lamp. She remembers him walking down the street, the cat startled and the lamp hanging from his shoulder bag. He was whistling 'Singing in the Rain'.

There is no shelter

There is no shelter, no clemency, no respite, the sirens ululate day and night. The river swollen with corpses vomits its cargo in the sea. She never said goodbye.

La

" Lalalalalalalalalala, I just can't get you out of my head", our neghbour listens to Kylie Minogue every morning during summertime. She says it's her pacifier.

S

Sometimes, just sometimes there is a brief opening, lights comes through and the world falls into silence. In the park, she mumbles through her books.
