Maybe this story has no man,
And no painful childhood memories of falling off the porch swing,
with father laughing,
and mother telling you to grow up,
because she can't remember what it was like to fall.
This story has no lesson.
There's no moral or symbolism or even careful irony.
Somewhere deep inside there's probably an event,
but events can be easily forgotten,
and no matter how intense they were,
times dulls them down and covers them up with New.
There is definitely a lack of Happy Ending in this story.
