@@@@@When distracted
and carrying something in @@@@@When distracted and carrying something in my left hand, I sometimes reached out with my right one to open a 111 doorAmputees forget, that's allTheir minds forget and as they heal, their bodies let them What I mostly remember about that evening is the wonderful, blissful sensation of having caught an actual bolt of lightning in a bottle for three or four minutesBy then the room had begun to dim out, the shadows seeming to swim forward over the rose-colored carpet toward the fading rectangle of the picture windowEven with the last light striking across my easel, I couldn't get a good look at what I'd doneI got up, limped around the treadmill to the switch by the door, and flipped on the overheadThen I went back, turned the easel, and caught my breath The sophora bracelet seemed to rear over the horizon-line like the tentacle of a sea creature big enough to swallow a supertankerThe single yellow blossom could have been an alien eyeMore important to me, it had somehow given the sunset back the truth of its ordinary I-do-this-everynight beauty That picture I set asideThen I went downstairs, microwaved a Hungry Man fried chicken dinner, and ate it right down to the bottom of the box 112 v The following night I lined the sunset with bundles of witchgrass, and the brilliant orange shining through the green turned the horizon into a forest fireThe night after that I tried palm trees, but that was no good, that one was another cliché, I could almost see hula-hula girls and hear ukes strummingNext I put a big old conch shell on the horizon with the sunset firing off around it like a corona, and the result was - to me, at least - almost unbearably creepyThat one I turned to the wall, thinking when I looked at it the next day it would have lost its magic, but it hadn't I snapped a picture of it with my digital camera, and attached it to an e-mailIt prompted the following exchange, which I printed out and stowed in a folder: EFree19 to KamenDoc 10:14 AM December 9 113 Kamen: I told you I was drawing pictures again This is your fault, so the least you can do is look at the attached and tell me what you think The view is from my place down hereDo not spare my feelings Edgar KamenDoc to EFree19 12:09 PM December 9 Edgar: I think you are getting betterIn truth the picture is amazingLike an undiscovered D | | Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 | | 6:51 pm |

When the flashlight's beam finally disinterred me, there was a gasp of relief “I found her! Tell the others to get back inside!

Are you all right?” I didn't raise my head or open my eyes “Where's Ian?” “Should we get Jamie, do you think?” “He shouldn't be on that legI shuddered at his nameHe was a monster, tooHe was just like the rest of themIt was a physical pain to think of him “Where is she?” “Over here, JaredShe's not… responding “We didn't touch her “Here, give me the light,” Jared said“Now, the rest of you, get out of here Give her some air, okay?” There was a shuffling noise that didn't travel far The shuffling was slow at first, but then became more productiveI could hear many footsteps fading away in the room and then disappearing out of it Jared waited until it was silent again “Okay, Wanda, it's just you and me He waited for some kind of answer “Look, I guess that must have been pretty… badWe never wanted you to see that Sorry?

We only wanted to –” “To protect me?” he interrupted, surly When did he get so bitter? Was it my fault?
