Discipline

The double-entry ledger system, pliés, a workable bicycle

A waterfall of words, an undergraduate literary magazine, untranslatable Olde English phrases

The accountant, the first lie, the seductive smile

A field mouse, a newborn, a pair of mallards

Twenty-seven disembodied entities, Mars on a dark night, the Night Stalker

The Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, a warm smile, eight pieces of chocolate

A rhinestone butterfly pin, an appointment for next Saturday, “Louie Louie”

“Anchoring,” going to a secondhand store, watching the boys play pool

Two blue herons, a red tail-feather, wild blueberries

A green swing set, Mother’s Day cards, an afternoon of “Tosca”
