Afghan Diary

Friday, one week after an multiple complex attack in next door

31 May 2013

Poem of the day is
Neither exciting nor frightening
Morning was cautiously beautiful.
Exactly a week after the suicide bomb and multiple-attack terror.
My husband called me donkey
Some friends told me I am irrational…
We will be fine…
And we shall be.
I called my mother and my father.
No one picked up the phone.
Party Day since it is a Grey City.
We had a Barbecue in the evening.
We got meat from Fat-Man Meat Market.
Lots of meat in the hot summer Kabul day.
A movie was shown,
Everyone wanted to watch the funny one.
Life itself is sufficiently serious.
Hotel Chevalier+ The Darjeeling Limited was funny enough for tonight.
I fell asleep again from the beginning to the end.
Ollie too.
The day ended this way
Just the way it should be.
