onto the desolate intersection.

Yesternight was a sad one, But alas, there are some life lessons embedded within any struggle. You could say I saw it coming: those are the worst. After spending an hour and a half reflecting and writing on the Eleventh of September and other matters pertinent to my post -I lost it all.
Scene 1: I am sitting in my tableless apartment, upon a wooden stool at the counter. My internet connection ceases. It doesn't matter, at this point, that my computer plods along at a slow clip -all I need to do is finish my blog and post it. Time: 10:30. No problem though because when you live in a mountain resort town, hot signals move through the downtown streets like a child skittering across pavement on a hot day. Hotter than street lamps; more solid than the posts they dangle from.
Scene 2: Walking downtown -only to the outskirts, I sit down on a bench that overlooks a deserted intersection: one man bikes by, a blinking light strapped to his head. An over sized jeep speeds to a stop, continues through the intersection, travels down to the next adjacent road, turns around, and comes back through the intersection; the charioteer, obviously a man of purpose. I hear a couple yelling in the distance, the doppler in full effect. I can't make out the words.
And as they move further away, the amplitude of the sound waves increases with each pedal stroke; I beg them to come back (or at least within earshot) so that I may determine the upshot of this dispute. Moreover, I have yet to determine the instigator but I assume that because the girl's voice is the more demanding of the two, it was the boyfriend who overstepped the boundaries of flirtation.
