The everyday hustle bustle of the market place was at its peak vendors shouting out to people, “ORANGES FOR 100RS A DOZEN ONLY” a child licking an ice cream cone, holding onto his mother’s shirt. a man walks down the street wearing a yellow patterned shirt. a boy argues with a vendor over the price of a shawl he is buying for his girl. BOOM And the world slowed down buildings collapsed debris flew everywhere dust rose like a menacing monster ready to swallow the earth and everything it contained in one big        gulp Just like it had slowed down the world sped up peoplerunningeverywhere-aboycryingforhisparents-ahandreachingoutfromunderthedustandbricks-peoplestumblingaround-trippingoverthepiecesofblownupcarts-awomancluthesablackshoeshefoundamongstthebricks.
