They lived where the city hills curved inward
A built up area within a shaded one kilometer area
The shade was old age where middle aged people lived
in old three storey houses with garages that opened up to cal de sacs
Even in the tropics the sun wouldn't shine there for some months of the year
An impression that the day stayed at the same hour all day
some time in the morning all the way into the first hour of night blue humidity
Huge garage roller doors opened and boxes arived in long sturdy open bed trucks
An indonesian man sat on a stack of pallets and smoked his cigarette with cloves in it
He smiled and speculated about the contents of teh boxes coming in
As trade war became the reality of the world the black market exploded
An unlikely purgatory in the dim neighborhood police avoided
