    A woman of no importance passed away, but her death went largely unnoticed. No one visibly grieved or took notice of her passing. The news of her death was a vague scrap that stumbled through alleyways, finding no shelter, and lodged obscurely in an unseen corner. Life continued as normal in the streets, with the morning light, vendors, and children, all unaware of the woman's passing.

The moon murmured sadly. Night, unconcerned, gave way to morning Light came with the milk cart and the call to fasting With the hungry mewing of a cat of rags and bones She shrill cries of vendors in the bitter streets The squabbling of small boys throwing stones Dirty water spilling along the gutters Smells on the wind Which played about the rooftops Playing in deep forgetfulness Playing alone
