if
he
was
a
thought
written
down
on
a
piece
of
paper
,
rejected
and
tossed
in
the
trash
can
,
then
he
hit
the
edge
and
fell
to
the
floor
,
where
a
young
, rascally siamese
cat
found
him
and
batted
him
around
the
persian
rug
with
clumsy
,
deft
paws,
until
he
bounced
down
the
steps
and
was
kicked inadvertantly
by
a
the
girl
who
was
late
for
the
bus
and
he
rolled
into
the
street
where
rain
was
falling
.
many
people
walked
by
and
the
man
who
searches
for
lost
papers
picked
him
up
and
even
though
he
was
wet
,
the
words
were
legible
because
they
were
written
with
fine
italian
ink
.
this
is
what
it
said
.
"
it
is
a
fearful
thing
to
love
what
death
can
touch
."
the
man
stood
there
in
the
rain
and
read
it
again
and
then
folded
it
up
trying
to
straighten
the
wrinkles
and
put
it
in
his
land's
end
bag
that
he
spent
a
dollar
for
at
the
thrift
store
.
later
that
day
when
he
went
home
he
glued
it
in
his
journal
.
