“Letter 17 Morning. The snow was falling outside. There was a white silence. My mother and I sat facing my father at the dining room table. There was something impenetrable about his gaze. It was like pack ice. And the ice was thickening. I could barely see into him. I knew. And they knew that I knew. He was broken. I did not even need to look at him. I could feel his brokenness all thorough the room.” — Gregory Colbert
Letter 17
Morning. The snow was falling outside. There was a white silence.
My mother and I sat facing my father at the dining room table.
There was something impenetrable about his gaze. It was like pack ice.
And the ice was thickening.
I could barely see into him.
I knew.
And they knew that I knew.
He was broken.
I did not even need to look at him.
I could feel his brokenness all thorough the room.
