Zim Zam

Zim Zam must have been a shadow. When I went from the mosque to the ice cream cafe, Zim Zam was sitting there with girls. He looked up at me, all wrapped in conservative black and brown. And he frowned, and then he leaned over to a girl to talk.

I walked through to another and sat with Miss, who was alone...They offer to buy me drinks, they do that every time. Miss was wrapped up in a little frown, staring a the table...

Zim Zam came over just as I said:

"And he said...there had been a split in Time, which must mean I witnessed a re-birth, and I was important, and I time-travelled..."

Zim Zam stood over the table, and looked cross:

"Can I get Harry Potter books in Arabic??" He looked cross, and I shook his leg, I mean his stance turned boy-fight...I knew all this kissing each other wasn't actually....happening!!!???

With a friend by a river...."Guess what house in H.Potter, I was put in...."

"Erm? ...The Dursleys?" And then I wanted to tell her, how hard it had been a t home when I was a teenager...I mean I got chucked out at the age of eight, for a whole summer, and stayed in my (Mum and Dad) Grandparents bungalow, in a village with few houses, and a stinky pig-farm across the road...and they took me to a theme park once, and I spent turn after turn on the swinging machine where your shoes fly off, and they told me they did that too, when they were young and drunk, and guiltily I demanded an ice-cream...and we played bingo at the sea-side, and went strawberry picking, and Is aw a barn owl in a shed, and I climbed huge hay-stacks, and I wrote my first story, and the only books they had were old readers digests and an encyclopedia of animals, the last one my favourite because it was about whales and dolphins, and I was going to be a ceateaologist, or a paleontologist, or easily just a zoo-ologist, and perhaps marine biology...and my story was about Cassowary's, beautiful ugly birds that can kill a man with a kick...inspired by Jurassic park...

Harry Potter gets locked in a cupboard under the stairs, by the Dursley's, from the age of one to eleven, given little food etc etc. because his parents are killed by the Dark Lord; And then he gets picked for Magic School!

"Oooh? Hufflepuff!"

"Yes!"

It must have been a shadow leaving his body. But then:

As I was weeping in bed, ZimZam appeared on his, and floated over my head...;

"It took you a year to want. And I waited by that wall, because the pid followed you...yellow ochre lights, a stream of hate and perversion, and he looks arabic...thats death of soul..."

It must be like the time traveller's wife, I hadn't realised yet, that nothing had been happening for Zim Zam a year since we met...So Zim Zam just appeared in the time of a week ago...and in the future she has been coming back to me all year...

Months ago, I had slept in her room, to keep the pervert away, months into years of giving a piff, fly...he was in her room  "EXPECTING!!" and I knew white wings of angels could kill him;

So, I don't know what happened next. Except the Zim Zam bits...

and all the ; (not quite explaining a soul) Zim Zam is supposed to the 'one who knows'...Zim ZAM is singing;

"I might fly thee..." It's like
