Missed Connections, 8 December 2011
You: Ochre jumpsuit with reflective tape on sleeves and trouser-legs, operating snowplow on Edmunsgatan Straat.
Me: Pearl leggings and forest green sweater, on footpath waiting for the tram.
I smiled at you as you passed, but you did not return the gesture. Instead, you allowed the blade of your hulking vehicle to batter me with a wall of snow and frozen earth. It was as if you hadn’t even seen me. But something tells me you were just being coy.
Care to grab a spiced wine?
