cooper and cooper's dog ma. cooper bounded up to copper who couldn't hear or see him coming and admirably was surprised but calm and friendly. we probably met before i was thinking after, so many people come and go looking familiar probably because they are, but peripherally, we're all peripheral to one another, coming and going. we talked about silence, she said how something in the air seemed strange when she came out, i said isn't it strange how silence feels unnatural. the city life. everyone comes and goes and we don't quite know what to do with silence when it's usually too loud to think.
