to slip into that cast again, too simple. today i am arms full of bundled money. outside... nothing. the air too thin, too much noise. clatter and clutter. to take my breath away, take me between punctuation.

...there was a picture of a whale. i looked into its tiny wise eye and wondered where that eye was now. was it alive and swimming, or had it died long ago, or was it dying now, right this second? when a whale dies, it falls down through the ocean slowly, over the course of a day. all the other fish see it fall, like a giant statue, like a building, but slowly, slowly. i focused my attention on the eye; i tried to reach down inside of it, toward the real whale, the dying whale, and i whispered, it's not your fault.

it was my first week there, and someone dropped dead behind the muffin case at 5 AM. they brought in crisis counselors and everything. it was really something. she was probably 70.
this could be the start of something really great, i thought.

I was, of course, reading Ecclesiastes at night in a very old Bible that had heavy pages. At first I read it over and over again every night, and then I read it once every night, and now I was just looking at the punctuation marks.
Actually I was counting them, a chapter every night. I was putting the number of punctuation marks down in a notebook, in neat columns. I called the notebook "The Punctuation Marks in Ecclesiastes." i thought it was a nice title. I was doing it as a kind of study in engineering.
Certainly before they build a ship they know how many rivets it takes to hold the ship together and the various sizes of the rivets. I was curious about the number of rivets and the sizes of those rivets in Ecclesiastes, a dark and beautiful ship sailing on our waters.

I had a rental car waiting ouside. It had stained baby clothes and a crack pipe on the backseat. I put my hand inside a plastic bag I found in the glove compartment and carefully lifted them out, dumping it all into a FedEx dropbox outside the hotel lobby. A FedEx employee once tried to steal my breakfast. I hold grudges for decades. Frankly, if I didn't hold grudges, I'd have nothing to play with on Christmas Day.
