We go on an adventure
A road trip to the west side of our city
You get your root canals filled
I go on vacation: Lebanon, Afghanistan, West Africa
I walk the streets and the world moves through me
Me and life, experiencing each other
Me and life exploring together with childlike awe
“Abdul’s Nuts”
“Mina’s Bakery – oregano, cheese, pizza.”
“No oregano after 4pm”, a sign declares inside
I love signs
I breathe in the words and let them fill me up
In these signs I am a foreigner
I read and smell and hear a far away world
Here, on the west side of our city
Your root canals are eventually full enough
I return from vacation and we continue our road trip together
Both excited
Heading west again
For a business trip to Alexandria and a cultural mini-holiday in Darlinghurst
But I don’t know that
To me, it’s you and me and life having fun
To me it’s simply
Adventure
