WILD

Theres' always the same light, when I look out of my window, way beyond the car park, way beyond the Grango family's house, way beyond the cables from the pylons. There's always the same light over Baïnem Forest which looks as if it's catching fire because the sun's going down and I wonder where it's going to fall. I don't know anything about how planets work and I don't want to know because I'm also included in that whole cycle, even when I'm lying in bed, even when I'm writing in my school book. Everything gets used up, nothing lasts, since the world's very first day. Away in the background, I can hear my mother in the kitchen, my father on the balcony, my sister in her bedroom constantly singing Sheila's latest song, Spacer, into her Grundig microphone. Each of them is where they should be, or they think they're where they should be, but that's an illusion, we're all carried along by the stars and their orbits, and when I think about it, it makes me see white stars in the air swirling like the millions of molecules that make up space, the ones we're all part of. Everything comes undone, everything gets separated and I don't know if we ever find the things we've lost.
