Everything has gone silent. Apart from the birds. Thank god. In the morning when they wake up you can hear them loud and clearly. The best music for waking up early. Everything else is quiet. The trains barely run and I don’t hear any brakes screeching, the streets have emptied, there aren’t any bawling hockey or football fans below my window. The disco near me has become silent and its noisy customers have disappeared. When I walk through the empty streets most of the time there is too much of a ghost like silence for a city. No music, no loud voices, no laughter, no fights, no honking of impatient drivers.
