Where I sleep

The site at night from the 9th floor. The crane light is the only star.
Six beds in a metal cabin, three on top, three on the bottom. I have a top. Next to me sleeps Sherzod from Namangan, he talks in his sleep in Uzbek, I understand half, and it is always about the money. Under me Mahmud, who snores like a lorry. In the corner a small electric heater that we are not allowed to have and we have.
It is hot in July like a tandoor. We sleep with the door open and the mosquitoes enjoy it. Not a complaint. A description.
