That thing that happens sometimes where the boardwalk stretches into the forest,  wetlands reflecting sunlight from below,  and you feel like you’re on tour through  a more interesting life than your own.  I’m already gathering what I plan to miss  on the operating table. And your eyes  looking up at me by the bedside light.  It’s going to be almost too hot for Saturday’s  cocktail party but we’re going ahead anyway.  We’ll leave a hose in the lawn in case  anyone wants to spray their toes and  scream like they’re four when you think  you might die and a second later you  want more. Your brother wants more.  Smack your brother. Get in trouble and  now it’s time to go to bed. There’s more  darkness in the yard. I’m not done.  We kept the shades drawn back in  the bedrooms. A sheet hanging in the hall  not to waste the air-conditioning, a separate  world back there, where you lie sideways  on top of the blankets, propped up  on your elbows with a paperback. The window unit humming in your  parents’ bedroom. You turn a page.  Something happens to your brain and  the rest of your life you want it again. 

— Christopher Citro, “Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators in the Mystery of the Rest of Your Life”

[TRANSCRIPT:

Our Beautiful Life When It's Filled With Shrieks

—Christopher Citro

I’m doing a balancing act with a stack

of fresh fruit

in my basket. I love you. I want us

both to eat well.

We’re not allowed to buy blackberries

anymore

because they’re mean to their workers

and you

read left-wing news sites. Till when? I

asked and you

said nothing. So that’s one healthy

food off the list.

I’m still buying pineapples and you’re

still eating them.

I guess you’ve never seen the websites

about those.

Nobody in this supermarket knows

that I am a puma.

This morning our cat rolled on the

floor showing me

her belly which I leaned down and

rubbed.

Beneath a backyard pine tree the

neighbor’s cat

was eating one of our cat’s moles—at

least the moles

we rent from the landlord for her. It’s

so complicated

staying alive sometimes. The voices of

the collection

agencies on the answering machine

sound menacing.

They’re paid to sound that way and

they’re not paid

much more than the people they’re

menacing,

which can get you thinking if you’re

the sort of

person who likes to think about that

sort of thing.

Other people subscribe to adventure

cycling

magazines and read about men who

rode across

Turkey in the late 1800s before

anything was

happening in the world. Before

cantaloupes

probably existed. When you could get

an honest

wage for an honest day’s blackberries.

When we

loved like fierce mountain storms,

with the blood

of eagles in our hearts, exchanging

grocery lists

that just said you you you you all the

way down.
