remember

A black woman clutching a pair of golden sunglasses raises her hand out of an open white dustbin bag . Her hand now, above her head, signalling. A triumphant smile, lost and found.  Street cleaners, some 20 meter back, acknowledge the gesture, then swoop their bodies down in their task and move on. I  cycle by and absorb this event on the last sunny Monday morning of the autumn of the year
