Folded Costumes (a quarter in the slot)

February 1, 2019

A man sat in a phone booth on the corner of 52nd and Trinity and said the following out loud to himself as the trucks and buses clanked and clunked on by.

Everything is as honest as you want it to be. We all wear costumes from time to time. But some of us sew are own and these fit the best. some work at a dry cleaners and borrow costumes from others when they have the chance. These never fit quite right and cause great inner-discomfort.  How comfortable are you with the occasional madness that blows in on the wind? How comfortable are you with the parts of your mind you don’t understand? If you take everything you have ever created and folded it up what would you have left ?

Then an an out-of-breathe over weight woman banged on the glass phone-booth door and the man acted like he had put a quarter in the slot and was waiting on the operator on the other end of the line.

see you soon,
