Remember the game we used to play?
Which you somehow almost always won.
Even like now, when I could not tell you
my location, would be hard-pressed to
even describe my environment, you’d
most often come through with the name
of the actual place. A real point on a map
I’d be, which neither of us would be able to
authenticate until some time later when
I had come to, so to speak, and had the
wherewithal to redraw my footsteps, to
figure out where it was I was at that
particular moment. But you. You
somehow knew. So can you guess
where I am now? Not only would
I love to know, but for reasons that
seem most important to me at the
moment, I’d give everything I have
(which, granted, is almost nothing)
for a map with which I might possibly
use get the hell out of here. Can you

try once more to guess where I am?
