Nadine and Vanessa want to buy half a kilo Lyoner each

Nadine has 40 mark, Vanessa 29

Nadine lives in Merzig, Vanessa in Beckingen

It is nine thirty in the morning

Nadine is driving eastwards at 110 km/h

Vanessa is on foot

Nadine trains parakeets, Vanessa just had her nails done

There is roadwork on the A8 towards Saarlouis

The Lyoner goes for 12 mark per kilo

A goat is hauled out of a pond in Wadgassen

They both got married during the independence

They both make it

someone sprayed over his graffiti behind the

Globus Parkhaus

now his

"Zukunft ohne Stahl!" in blue

was only half visible under new letters

"MENETEKEL" in black 

soon 

all the empty travel agencies

boutiques

and shisha/sports bars 

in Völklingen

will become galleries

too

his first book was a box of matches / the next a dry stone wall / the next a pair of light blue jeans with matching shirt, buttons of mother of pearl / at the age of twenty / he had read most of the classics /
