Desolation

Look out your back window or door — describe what you see, as if you were trying to convey the scene to someone from another country or planet.

The sight is dark and desolated. Above all in cloudy days like today. The place looks  abandoned and dirty. Pigeons are the only inhabitants. There is a roof with patches and a dark brick wall with several kind of pipes on it. The wall has a black door always closed. From the door starts a ruined stair descending to an abandoned surface with some debris, grass growing  and two  dirty semi cylindrical skylights.

It’s the back side of the  top of the old neighbouring building.

Ours is prettier because our building is white and has windows and balconies to the back side. I’m living in the second floor and my sight is not  good. But because our building is one of the tallest in our quarter, my neighbours of the upper floors can enjoy a nice panoramic of the old city from the back windows. I only can see the city from the front windows open to a nice square  you can see here
