Glimpse

I walked back along Cromwell Road tonight, as I called in at Dave's Comics after work.
It was quite a relief to be walking back along Cromwell Road. There is something tyrannical about walking to and from work along Western Road, too much of it soaked in freezing winter, and all the bleak claustrophobia of white-out January days. I think it was helped by the sunset-sun hanging in the sky, somehow too high for a sunset, but there it was anyway. Looked like all those winter sunsets I remenber from childhood, but there was something impossibly spring-like through it all.
