Quake

The quake of the shutters
Wakes me.
The vendors in the market
Banging noisy crates.
The sun shines through my curtains
I hope they sell something today.
The stalls exist below me
I hear them shout 'morning'
And want to reply
But above all the din
They wouldn't hear me, wrapped
In the quiet of my duvet.
