This week, in the world of Lisa...
this morning I was driving to work,
like any other morning.
but this was not
at all
like any other morning.
usually i see three special needs people walking into vic park on albany highway.
today i did not see three special needs people walking into vic park on albany highway.
today i saw only one of the special needs ladies.
she was on the side of the road.
she had emerged from a laneway between two stores.
several minutes previous i suspect from her expression.
her upper body was completey exposed.
the side of her face was lacerated and bleeding.
her mouth was gaping mid-wail.
her brows were furrowed to the extreme.
her eyes were wet, bewildered and confused.
she had been attacked.
and there was nobody helping her.
i couldnt stop immediately,
i had to go a ways down oats street to turn around and go back.
on the way i saw a lady with a pram successfully avoiding the situation.
i got stuck at a red light for what seemed like forever.
by the time i got back, there was a young girl helping her,
and the ranger arrived.
the girl was pointing down the highway,
presumably in the direction of the attacker,
whilst trying to comfort the lady.
relieved someone was looking after her,
i left.
i left her there,
confused and scared,
holding her blue teddy,
with an arm around her now covered shoulder.
