... is at least human, for God's sake.
-J.D. Salinger
Yeah? Did you get that? My son did not... and my soul bled everywhere when he admitted it. I sucked it in, smiled, explained;
"You see, " I said "the horse, in its raw, unbridled state" (and I chuckled internally at my cleverness here) "is often more relatable than.., well, than most people. Do you see?"
Blank, beautiful, but blank, blue eyes stared back. I sighed.
"nevermind, do you like it?"
and he did. I Christianed him a horse, for at least that moment.
