all I can think about right now is that time when we were on that little boat at the end of our bike odyssey at the summer palace, that pearly color of the fog and the arched bridges and the lake, pink through my sunglasses, and how we took swigs of brandy from the flask I kept in my bag, and I didn't help you pedal, not even once.
i apologize for that. but you know.
all I can think about is that desolate feeling in the middle of the in-flight showing of King Kong, as we crossed the international date line and I realized suddenly that I wasn't going back to China.
and that night in Alan's house, Karaoke, sleeping beneath the canopied mosquito nets you know it doesn't get better than that, and that's what scares me, because that's over.
kids how long will I be this old?
