It was just the four of them: Margaret, Adair, and Adair’s two parents.
So far, Adair’s two parents have remained nameless. This is not to protect the innocent. Though, in the morally-relativistic way. Which is the only way. To reflect, or represent. The human soul, Adair’s parents are innocent.
They can make big mistakes, which, while innocent, bleed into immorality and, shucks, illegality.
Yet, in the soul of the night– night, the time of transgression– the mask of darkness, the implicate,
Everyone knows the night.
Everyone sleeps until noon,
Stays awake to greet midnight,
Dreams into the sky red, white, blue– green– aquamarine– Haley Selassi–
American dream– degraded into an imperial dream–
Big mistakes can bleed guilty blood.
