Wilted (Bratislava)
"Red flowers still bloom in October but I'm wilted from travel. So close to Vienna, no urge to visit. I stay in Bratislava to wander and wonder—why do I do this?

I stop in a pub to eat, too late for lunch specials, order plum dumplings. It's not the cost... just frustration of being an hour behind, one euro short.

I'm surrounded by Scots, fresh off a lost to Slovakia. Can't understand them; they chatter among themselves. Clueless, I wait for my meal. And wait some more. Alone.

Life is for sharing. So I write."

© Kåre Enga [12.oktobrá.2016]

Written in Bratislava, sent October 13th to Ofelia Brevaldo in Florida.
