City Rain

The streets are sopping, and a man is walking very slowly, behind his leash, behind his bulldog. I want to open the window and yell, "Hurry up, you'll get wet!" Instead, I sit here in my office--the window bolted shut--and watch as they make their way down the avenue, so slowly, I think, but when I look up again, they're already gone.

  2. I like walking slow...meandering, wandering, whatever you want to call it...it's a Southern thing...
