First Alleyways
Cente, the
breast-only
feeder, changes their
priorities. Worn
out parents still make the scene
but Danny’s trick knee
makes him the caregiver and
it’s changed his
personality
from wild to
subdued. He
smiles, always
has, and Jessica
talks, bartenders draw
Seoul’s Jirisan beer as cold
winter rebounds, blue
wind chills five layer attempt
to stay warm.
I blew hard at a
street Christian:
Jehovah’s
evangelist. Misplaced, but
a release
from a life in which
the glow of a young
child has been
replaced by domestic war.
Envy creeps,
desire to rewind
ten years hits again.
