prescription for a feeling

Take the train home in the evening. It will stop opposite a house with a tall bay window. On the second floor a black and white cat will be surveying the world from a green pillow in the window. Look at the way the cat fits perfectly into its home. Think about how far you have to go to reach your own. The lights are just coming on in windows all over the city. The baby will start crying as you are walking home from the train.
