The Light

Christmas is eight days away.  I’m
watching Fallout, season 2, episode 1,
a couple of days after a breakdown,
pretty much, yeah, a real breakdown.

Or a series of them.  Now seems a good 
time to analyze what happened there. 
I see the signs.  “Made Fresh Daily.” 
“Just Ahead: Eats.” and “Flea Soup, 2 caps” 

doesn’t sound right, but fits.  And credit cards. 
Two.  Creatively, I find ways out of breakdowns. 
Also, a sort of grant application.  Could this be
the beginning of a new era?  The tensions that

we create become easy distractions. That night, 
as a treat, I went out searching for a Pisco Sour.
