In the lobby of the downtown library, the marble floor accepted the afternoon sunlight and spun it back to my eyes like braided yarn. Jason was standing there so fresh – he smelled like Irish Spring. Looking past him, I saw the red nylon tent, the coffee table and the camping chairs in an open area just outside the genealogy room. They were letting the homeless live in the library now, and Jason had all the books in the world in his house. He just stood there laughing at me because he loved me. Of course he already knew that the Swans are putting out a new album.
