In the center of one wall, and rigidly at right angles to it, a Venetian double bed of white enamel columns banded and curlicued with nickel asserts an importance as of a sacrificial altar or an operating-theatre table. On each side of the bed, dead parallel to the dead-straight hems of the dead-white quilt, lies a shaggy white mohair mat. A four-fold japanese screen, reeds and cranes embroidered in greenish gold on linen, conceals a cabinet that contains the chamber-pot into which, sometimes, from my own next door bedroom, I half asleep hear, dispassionately, yet with some interest, my father or my mother urinating." <br /><br />-Hal Porter.<br />The Watcher on the Cast-Iron Balcony.<br /><br /><br />Oh my goodness!R.H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04639593801088008224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17391176.post-35383751675178226572010-05-08T15:13:20.136+10:002010-05-08T15:13:20.136+10:00Robbert, continue talking to yourself, I do.
