Rafaela

On Tuesdays Rafaela's husband comes home late because that's the night he plays dominoes.

Rafaela who is till young but getting old from leaning out the window so much...................

Gets locked indoors because her husband is afriad Rafeala will run away

since she is too beautiful to look at.

Rafaela leans out the window and leans on her elbow and dreams her hair is......

like rapunzel's

Along time passes..... and we forget she is up there

Sweet Sweet like the island like the dance hall down the street.

where women much older than her throw green eyes easily like dice and open homes with keys.

And always there is someone offering sweeter drinks someone promising to keep........

them on a silver string.
