6. Sundowner Blues
I’d spent a fortnight living in a museum in the city I’d grown up in, because I had nowhere else to go. I spent my time walking across the city, meeting strangers, and stories. This is about one of those afternoons, when I got stranded under the obelisk in front of a hundred year old grave, reading about them as I waited for the rain to stop.
