This 2023 novel is quick, and not just on its feet. I don’t think I’ve ever read anything that made me look at the natural world around me as differently.
Ballot time
I hung onto my ballot until this afternoon, far too late to mail it in. When I realized I could drop it off at a county dropbox outside city hall, I drove over. And when a would-be voter pulled up beside me and asked, I loaned her a pen to fill hers out.
Hello, again
If I knew what I was doing, I’m not sure I’d give it a go again. Perhaps I’ll get the hang, instead of just lingering in the disquiet. Maybe I won’t. Still though, no reason not to try.
