DIRTY WINDOWS
The right circular line, commonly known in Milan as the 90 and the left specular, 91, mark the city as a compass. 24 hours a day.
That bus you take if you live in the suburbs, the dangerous one that stinks, always crowded.
The one in wich someone that you know has been stolening something, or yourself even got robbed.
The one where you meet people of all ages and ethnicity but not from any social class.
No, who can avoid 90 and 91, they definitely avoid them.
It's the place that sometimes allows you to warm up when you do not have a place to sleep and maybe it's raining outside.
The bus you took during those hot summer nights to distract yourself looking for stories to tell.
The one you kept taking sometimes in the winter even if you lived in the center.
Those moments when to get to the first stop of 90 you had to take the subway and meet others ghosts, maybe only dressed better and less smelly than those you would soon meet anyway.
The bus in which a thousand faces are reflected on the dirty windows that become one with what's outside, with a city that doesn't care of the many people who find comfort in the circular at night.
