In The Next Seat by Judith Pordon | ||
He sat, stone forward, with a graceless absence of gesture waiting for motion to begin somewhere else, his impatient timepiece, ticking. For him, I was unacceptable so I spoke hesitantly. He was sandpaper, irritated and irritating. Under my color skin he felt no kindred blood and changed his seat. _________________________________________________________________________ JUDITH PORDON
