August 12, 1993
Along the pavement on rainy nights, like obliquely shining eyes, the orange lights of autos slant. Large sly cat[Cs, they pass watching something out there in the grass. Their glances never waver as they go but fasten sidewise on some object, flow warily by the suspicious mark, leave it, lurking still, engulfed in dark.
