Dusty

by Alan Kelly

We're coasting along the dust lane on our bicycles. The back road made me feel like those dreamers I saw after school beside the old gaol at the top of Wicklow town. Leafing through pages of dusty books in the community library. Like they are dreaming bout stuff in a quiet way. Their eyes never seem to fix on any one word. We’ve arrived at the watertank.
