September 12

A four year old girl on a scooter. Pink jumper. Curly blonde hair. She scoots through an underpass that cuts an underground carpark in half.

‘So multi-coloured,’ she says pointing to the red, blue, green and yellow railings either side.

‘Yes, beautiful,’ says her father.

For a moment he doesn’t notice he’s in a carpark with oblong shadows and silent cars and scudding rubbish. He sees the colours on the railings.
