Let the Great World Spin
Tightrope walker. World Trade Center. Manhattan in the Seventies. Priest shooting up. Tom Waits on a jukebox. Grieving mother. Artists being artists. Rapid-fire sentences. Your victim’s funeral. Hooker with an 124 IQ. Reading Rumi in prison. What a coincidence! Like having sex with the wind. You’re still reading? Judge named Solomon. Wife of the star of the Negro debating team. Will she finish her crossword? Some things will be better in thirty years. Some things won’t. In the city of laughter. City of tears. City of hopes. City of fears. Small world after all.
