Once you’re
lost on the river you may as well keep going. You may as well pick a bank and
search for people. There are more turns than you could ever find your
way round.
At this one
bank there is a short stretch of beach in front of high cliffs. An entrance to a
valley is visible through a break in the stone. When you’re despeate to
find someone you have no choice but to go on. The way in is narrow but you force yourself between the rocks, while your clothes tear by the guts and your arm gets grazed.
Once
inside
you see a group of trees dropping blossoms. Though the place you come
from is poor, seeming even more so in comparison,
you have these same trees. You have, too, the same birds flying about
and the same scent
of grass. The homemade cooking probably smells roughly the same here.
Yet this is already a better place, where simple sights are elevated.
