"Bromford Express"
Looking at the world through the sunset in your eyes
Traveling the train through clear Moroccan skies
Ducks and pigs and chickens call
Animal carpet wall to wall
American ladies five-foot tall in blue
Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mind
Had to get away to see what we could find
Hope the days that lie ahead
Bring us back to where they've led
Listen not to what's been said to you
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Bromford Express
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Bromford Express
They're taking me to Bromford
All aboard the train, all aboard the train
I've been saving all my money just to take you there
I smell the garden in your hair
Take the train from Casablanca going south
Blowing smoke rings from the corners of my mouth
Colored cottons hang in the air
Charming cobras in the square
Striped djellebas we can wear at home well let me hear you now
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Bromford Express
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Bromford Express
They're taking me to Bromford
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Bromford Express
Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Bromford Express
They're taking me to Bromford
All on board the train, all on board the train
All on board

After a seemingly endless night full of not understandable shouts and orders and conversations between the captain and his first mate on the rocking ship in heavy and unquiet seas I wake up in the prison-cell they call 'the brig'.
On one narrow bunk with a dirty blanket lies Kylie trying to find some sleep. Nigel, her son, is sitting next to her leaning his shoulders against the bunk.
Claude Sideburns, who we don't want to call Burnside and a professor for archaeology any longer, is walking around in small circles.
»Where are Hildegard and Gilbert? « he asks. »They were right by my side. We must have lost them. «
The llama is trying to get Sideburns' attention.
»And do you remember how the helmsman grabbed us all six with his two strong arms and threw us in this cell? Awesome, that was so awesome. «
Totally calm and all relaxed and seemingly unaffected by everything going on around him Mr. Tumbleweed, the faun, is standing in the far corner of the open room with the iron bars to the rest of the ship - far and yet so close that I could have touched him if I reached out my hands. His mysterious eyes are looking at me and all through me at the same time.
»Istanbul«, he says, »not Constantinople. «
Today is Thursday, the 7th of December 2023.
