Homeless in Surburbia
It’s the school holidays. The sun
is out and it’s an early morning. But why are there teenagers hanging around a post-box
in suburbia? It’s warm, but they’re all wearing beanie hats. So are they having
a rest while they’re begging for scraps on their way to somewhere else? Have
they spent the night in the park and they’re just coming up for air? There’s a
shop across the road, which I assume is still open. But there’s a new
supermarket at the bottom of the hill that could have put it out of business.
Or have they simply been thrown out of their home for the day as they can’t be
trusted to hang around in the house all day while their parents are at work? Perhaps
they’re just waiting for someone to pick them up and they’ve been let down.
Either way, it seems a very strange place for them to congregate.
