Milk of --------


Road signals are a good place to see what is around one. One is suddenly surrounded by bored expressions, bad music, beautiful people. There is a hidden tension in this inactivity. But there are oasis's of tranquil unawareness, people not engrossed in the everyday hurly-burly.
This is what I saw - a man with a shiny rag over his head feeding a pup milk from a plastic bowl. The biscuit in front of him suggests that he tried to feed the pup with it but the pup was not interested.
Was his world the plastic bag beside him or the little pup that he is feeding?
