Losing My Religion by R.E.M.

I’m a teenager
It’s a late evening
In the TV runs the music marathon organised by Pepsi
This is where and how I saw and heard this song.

*****

I’m outside but the song is playing in my head.
Just a couple of days ago we had an earthquake and for this evening there was a prognose that it will be another earthquake tonight. Some people are on the streets, some however, like my mother, ignore the prognose and stay indoor, doing what they usually do at those late hours. It’s a fresh however not cold evening. Some children are playing. Some parents are talking to / with / at each other.
After some time spent outside some families start returning back to the apartments.

P.S. It didn’t earthquake that night.
