Inadvertently Evoking

Sometimes--for one reason or another--it gets so bad that I don't feel

at the same time conscious of relishing that very quality. His eyes

have a gift for bringing out the best in situations. Thank you for tonight,

or rather, understanding the situation, but not the larger situation

that I didn't want them to suffer. So right away I told him,

a guileless, ordinary chap, who went about laughing,

if you want a camera assistant, I’m your fox. I come from

all along the wall under the staircase. They don’t look like

a buck a week allowance, and thought it still wasn't enough

as he denied the antithesis between God and nature, saw in the

houses, something glowed. It was as if the visible world concealed an enigma.

The medium had always loved watching amusement park visitors wait in long,

drawings to create one minute of animation--a far cry from the demands.
