lashing down softly
but enough to drown - floods of water
as I head off to the editor - dodging through a sea of umbrellas I stop at Ayşe Chemist
to deal with a hangover caused by the artist
the night before holes in my shoes
have put my feet
in two baths of
hammam ritual
cold water to the Simit trolley
food bag ready to go
I stand by the bank
I eat sesame bread breakfast and late for my meeting
I stop to buy a watch
as the junction traffic
causes waves
as the precipitation
flows fast along
as commuters
from buses taxis and ferries
