@@@@@These not-quite-offhand
scribbles had been @@@@@These not-quite-offhand scribbles had been laid along the horizon-line of the Gulf to indicate sunset They were genius writ smallIt was my horizon, the one I saw from Little PinkI knew that just as I knew the artist had been listening to the shells grind steadily beneath him as he turned blank white paper into what his eye saw and his mind translatedOn the horizon was a ship, probably a tankerIt could have been the very one I'd drawn my first evening at Number 13 Duma Key RoadThe style was nothing at all like mine, but the choice of subject-matter was damn near identical Scribbled almost carelessly at the bottom: Salv Dalí iv Miss Eastlake - Elizabeth - had her cigarette while Oprah questioned Kirstie Alley on the always fascinating subject of weight-lossWireman produced egg salad sandwiches, which were deliciousMy eyes kept straying to the framed 268 Dalí sketch, and I kept thinking - of course - Hello, DalíPhil came on and began berating a couple of fat ladies in the audience who had apparently volunteered to be berated, I told Wireman and Elizabeth that I really ought to be getting back Elizabeth used the remote to silence DrPhil, then held out the book the remote had been sitting onHer eyes looked both humble and hopeful "Wireman says you'll come and read to me on some afternoons, Edmund, is that true?" We're forced to make some decisions in a split second, and I made one thenI decided not to look at Wireman, who was sitting to Elizabeth's left The acuity she'd exhibited at her play-table was fading, even I could see that, but I thought there was still quite a lot leftA glance in Wireman's direction would be enough to tell her that this was news to me, and she'd be embarrassedI didn't want her to be embarrassed, partly because I liked her and partly because I suspected life would hold a great many embarrassments for her in the year or two aheadIt would soon be more than forgetting names 269 "We've discussed it," I said "Perhaps you'd read me a poem this afternoon," she saidI could do without Oprah, but a life without books is a thirsty life, and one without poetry isIt was a bewildered sound that hurt my hear | | Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 | | 10:08 am |
@@@@@
It was late, no sunlight left lingering @@@@@ It was late, no sunlight left lingering behind the western mountainsBehind us, Ian and Kyle were taking turns driving the big moving truck loaded with our spoils, just as Jared and I took turns with the vanThey had to drive the heavy vehicle more carefully than Jared did the van The headlights had faded slowly into the distance, until they disappeared around a wide curve in the road We were on the homestretchIn a few short hours, I would see Jamie We would unload the welcome provisions, surrounded by smiling faces My first, I realized For once the return would bring nothing but joyWe carried no doomed hostages this time I wasn't paying attention to anything but anticipationThe road didn't seem to be flying by too fast; it couldn't fly past fast enough as far as I was concerned The truck's headlights reappeared behind us “Kyle must be driving,” I murmured“They're catching up And then the red and blue lights suddenly spun out in the dark night behind usThey reflected off all the mirrors, dancing spots of color across the roof, the seats, our frozen faces, and the dashboard, where the needle on the speed gauge showed that we were traveling twenty miles over the speed limit The sound of a siren pierced the desert calm CHAPTER 48 Detained The red and blue lights swirled in time with the siren's cry Before the souls had come to this place, these lights and sounds had had only one meaningThe law, the keepers of the peace, the punishers of offenders Now, again, the flashing colors and angry noise had only one meaningA very similar meaning Still the keepers of the peace It wasn't as common a sight or sound as it had been bef | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 10:15 am |

Cummings was calm, almost cheerfulHe leaned back in his chair, and tapped his foot slowly"Frankly, I don't particularly care to have you around as my aide any longerYou aren't ready to appreciate this lesson yetI think I'm going to send you to the salt minesSuppose after lunch you report over to Dalleson's section, and work under him for a while Hearn's face had become expressionless againHe started toward the exit of the tent, and then paused"General?" "Yes?" Now that it was over, Cummings wished that Hearn would leaveThe victory was losing its edge, and minor regrets, delicate little reservations, were cloying him "Short of bringing in every man in the outfit, all six thousand of them, and letting them pick up your cigarettes, how are you going to impress them?" This was the thing that had sullied his pleasureCummings realized it now | | Friday, December 31st, 2010 | | 10:16 am |

@@@@@Sometimes
there were extra things for @@@@@Sometimes there were extra things for Jared, packaged foods with brand names I recognized–Red Vines, Snickers, Pop-TartsI tried to imagine how the humans had gotten their hands on these delicacies I didn't expect him to share–of course not–but I wondered sometimes if he thought I was hoping he wouldOne of my few entertainments was hearing him eat his treats, because he always did so ostentatiously, perhaps rubbing it in the way he had with the pillow that first night Once, Jared slowly ripped open a bag of Cheetos–showy about it as usual–and the rich smell of fake powdered cheese rolled through my cave… delicious, irresistibleHe ate one slowly, letting me hear each distinct crunch My stomach growled loudly, and I laughed at myselfI hadn't laughed in so long; I tried to remember the last time and couldn't–just that strange bout of macabre hysteria in the desert, which really didn't count aslaughterEven before I'd come here, there hadn't been much I'd found funny But this seemed hilarious to me for some reason–my stomach yearning after that one small Cheeto–and I laughed againA sign of madness, surely I didn't know how my reaction offended him, but he got up and disappearedAfter a long moment, I could hear him eating the Cheetos again, but from farther awayI peeked out of the hole to see that he was sitting in the shadows at the end of the corridor, his back to meI pulled my head inside, afraid he might turn and catch me watchingFrom then on, he stayed down at that end of the hall as much as possibleOnly at night did he stretch out in front of my prison Twice a day–or rather twice a night, as he never took me when the others were about–I got to walk to the room with the rivers; it was a highlight, despite the terror, as it was the only time I was not hunched into the unnatural shapes my small cave forced on meEach time I had to crawl back inside was harder than the last Three times that week, always during the sleeping hours, someone came to check on us The first time it was Kyle Jared's sudden lunge to his feet woke me“Get out of here,” he warned, holding the gun ready “Just checking,” Kyle saidHis voice was far away but loud and rough enough that I was sure it was not his brot | | Saturday, December 11th, 2010 | | 10:43 am |

The bo-att is okay, mon! It is our boss mon, MrSaint Jay!” The drug boat shot out of the water and onto the dark sand, its engines screaming, the blades instantly embedded, the pointed hull cracking under the impactJacques leaped up from his defensive fetal position and vaulted over the gunwale“Villa Twenty!” he roared, racing through the downpour across the beach to the stone steps that led to the path“All you men, get there!” As he ran up the hard, rain-splattered staircase he suddenly gasped, his personal galaxy exploding into a thousand blinding stars of fireGunshots! One after anotherOn the east wing of the path! His legs cycled faster and faster, leaping over two and three steps at a time; he reached the path and like a man possessed raced up the path toward Villa Twenty, snapping his head to the right in furious confusion that only added to his panicPeople—men and woman from his staff— were clustered around the doorway of Villa Fourteen! My God, the judge!
