Pindus Mountains

fear
can be Ā a mercedes
tanked up on Raki
smoking a fag
singingĀ 
she looks down
at tiny houses
dots on Ā a map
no saftey barriers
just a dirt track
on a winding mountain
where only goats
would hear you
when you scream

Ā

remembering a car journey from Elbasan to Saranda via Vlore and through the Pindus mountains. Ā I have been up a few mountains ranges, but never been driven in a car on unsuitable farm tracks like in Albania..they are meant not for traffic..there are monuments on every bend to those who have met there death..I prayed to all the gods on that road..
