Description
It's August outside, but inside there's a blizzard. It's strange, homely, with the smell of dust in the closet and leaves on the bed. Everything seems to be over, but remnants of the past stubbornly cling to the eyes: old earrings, a denim jacket on the back of a chair, cookies that have long since given in to time. Even silly insults and armies of cat hair become museum exhibits - you can't touch them, but you can't forget them.
Every line is filled with a mixture of self-irony and honesty: “Yes, everything has fallen apart, but at least something remains.” And in this “better than nothing” there is no tragedy, only human fatigue and a little warmth. As if the chaos after the storm suddenly seemed cozy, because it still holds the memory of what was once alive.
