Samson`s Place II

Samson was an old sailor. He used to sing shianties to us kids,

and if we asked him nicely, show us his fantastic tattoos.

Samson lived in a small cabin in the forest.

To me as a child, his tiny, cozy livingroom was like a treasure chest.

All kinds of amazing things from all over the world. Crystal balls with small

shells and dolphins inside, shrines covered with colored stones, colorful pictures from exotic places, stunning pearlescent lamps...

Together with his fabolous stories...it was like a true fairytale.

A great man Samson was, who now is long dead and gone.

A few weeks ago, I went by his cabin. The door was smashed, and every window was broken.

I went inside to find everything smashed to pieces and scattered all over the place.

The only thing I could find that was still in one piece, was a metal wash bowl.

I took it with me and went home.
