Eva Ekeblad, 2001
Walking far from the S-weed domain, first marching with fifteen thousand in a peaceful manifestation, and then trudging towards a tram for home: bumbling naively into where the City was Not Reclaimed - finding all our ways out blocked by police lines... strange times for citizens. Coming home from these walks - oh, unharmed, I was never in any danger - to finish my daily weed page before midnight: I was shaken by the powerful contrast. If now a contrast it is. This town is where I live, weeds and all.
