letters
to an unknown audience
The man with the hands is pouring the milk. I can only watch his hands—how does he do it?—with his hands like that? He will not be stopped. Boiling veggies, spreading butter, transferring crackers into a special cracker storage unit. Shifting from first into second and on up to fifth. Making a critical right turn. The man has opinions, myriad opinions on current events. MOREOVER he wants to know your opinion on the matter. Not your thoughts but opinion. A crudité for discussion. What would you do in this situation? he asks, rehearsing a situation told baker's dozens of times. We don't know what he really wants but he is very calm.
