we rushed to catch the
northbound 49 on broadway, tryna
make it in time to see a play we got cheap front row seats to thanks to our friend who designed the set. sarah ran ahead while i got stuck in amber, lingered in the languid light of the golden hour. we caught our bus, rode in back as it drove down the middle of two mountain ranges, pausing stuck at slow intersection. i took pictures of panoramic dystopia from u. bridge, prompting a woman near us to turn around and say, "yes, it is so beautiful." sarah checked in at will call as i jogged ahead to nearest bar to place our order. we had a quarter hour and needed every minute. the beer was good and the owner popped up like a giant leprechaun to tell us we were in seattle's original brew pub. dragon lady was amazing. it's pretty much a one-woman show but the stage swarms with spirits channeled in rapid succession by the shapeshifting author till i swore i was seeing double. you could almost smell the smoke curling off her imaginary cigarette. at intermission we dashed back to the bar, had a blood orange apple cider that tasted like crunching through crisp red leaves. on the bus ride home, no one wanted to move the banana poised mysteriously on a seat but i did and people laughed when i put it to my ear and said, "hello?" could a career in showbiz be next? |
