his disposition, but the present
is the only thing he can see. Cars people animal

a telephone that rings sometimes
I telephoned that rings and shows a name he knows, but he does not pick up. That name is not part of his present,
forgiveness and memory are two inextricable to say answer a phone break lights.
He slows
he drives carefully
he drives in the moment. He is
a good driver
He is good at lots of things
the phone rings.
He is not good at
breathing. This has been traffic.

She shouted at these scientists,
We wanted to see what that man was doing in there.
One of them meekly replied what man the woman said. I live alone and looking in from the front door, they could see a room of the same shape and size as the one. John Peters. You know the farmer had been
standing in the room.
Was full of chairs and couch and plants and a table.
And photographs
none of lighthouses most of faces.
Faces, similar in form to the woman's at the door.
The scientists who were at the window could see John standing in the empty room. Looking at lighthouses, the woman said her name was Cynthia and she
