and I remembered that one nice pretty weather day when I was part of the air.
And I remembered that I mowed the lawn that day for my allowance just like I shovel the driveway for my allowance now.
So I started shoveling Bob’s driveway, which is a strange thing to do at a New Year’s Eve party really.
My cheeks were red cold just like Mr. Z’s drinking face and his black shoes
and his voice saying when a caterpillar goes into a cocoon, it goes through torture and how it takes seven years to digest gum.
And this one kid Mark at the party who gave me this came out of nowhere and looked at the sky and told me to see the stars.
So, I looked up, and we were in this giant dome like a glass snowball,
and Mark said that the amazing white stars were really only holes in the black glass of the dome, and when you went to heaven, the glass broke away,
and there was nothing but a whole sheet of star white, which is brighter than anything but doesn’t hurt your eyes.
It was vast and open and thinly quiet, and I felt so small. Sometimes, I look outside,
and I think that a lot of other people have seen this snow before.
Just like I think that a lot of other people have read those books before. And listened to those songs.
