Innocent
Last fall, Godson and his mom Suzi were driving around while she was doing errands. As they passed a dairy farm, one of the bulls mounted a cow and started going to town. Suzi kept driving without comment, while thinking maybe he didn't notice. I'm really not ready to explain the birds and bees just yet.
After a minute of quiet, Godson piped up, "Hey, Mom! Did you see those cows?"
Oh, shit. "What about them, buddy?"
"They were playing leapfrog!"
I laughed my ass off when his mom told me that story. You only get to be that innocent once.

I was at the park and a gaggle of male ducks were chasing a female duck, trying to mount her.
Some little kids said, "Hey mommy the ducks are fighting!"
To be a upright human being is to have a kind of openness to the mankind, an gift to group undeterminable things beyond your own manage, that can lead you to be shattered in very exceptionally circumstances for which you were not to blame. That says something exceedingly impressive with the condition of the righteous autobiography: that it is based on a trust in the unpredictable and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a spy than like a jewel, something kind of dainty, but whose mere special attractiveness is inseparable from that fragility.
