A child, whirling and screaming in delight. Tires squealing out on the main road. A son to his mother: "If I couldn't get bond it was gonna be 48 grand." A flock of finches in a tree anxiously awaiting everyone’s crumbs. An old woman fumbling with lighter “click” “cough”, and shuffling away. A father laughing and chasing his daughter,"¡Corré, corré!" The angry honk of a parent looking for their child. The whir of a Barbie power wheels jeep on the walking track. The disconcerting squeak of swing chains stretched to their limit. "Daddy, look how high I'm going! It’s as high as it goes." A fire truck siren blaring as it pulls out of the dispatch. Two kids: "I'm starting third grade." "Oh my God, kindergarten was so boring.” Strangers on a bench: “You can pet him.” “My name's Le'veon.” "Time to leave" in my own voice.
