Postkort fra 2046: The Little Bricklayer in the Courtyard

The Little Bricklayer in the Courtyard

Kære Kasper,

There is a small machine in our courtyard now... it has been there four days. About the size of Fru Hansens cat, copper-coloured, with two little arms that move very slowly. It is pointing the mortar between the bricks on the gable wall. Patient work. I made coffee yesterday morning just to stand at the window and watch it.

I think it was sent by the cooperative — there was a notice on the door, but you know how I am with notices...

The strange thing is, it whistles. Not loudly. A small tune, two or three notes, only when it finishes a section. I asked Fru Hansen if she hears it too and she said yes, and that she has started to wave at it. So now I do as well. It does not wave back, but it pauses a moment, which I have decided is the same thing.

Preben would have hated it, I think. Or loved it. He never could decide about anything new...

The linden tree is starting. The air smells like honey by evening.

Write when you can. Or dont. Either way.

Mormor
