Modernity across the street from Columbus Park.
I see this tall black dude in the park most mornings. Today he had his pants up and I noticed something odd - then I realized that his right, lower leg is a prosthesis. He was carrying a big, black bag and laboring to hang it in a tree. The tree (a low pine tree, I think) had a lot of leaves and he was trying to hide his bag. After he was done and left, I went over and looked around. The bag was in the tree, and you can barely see it unless you knew it’s there. And I knew.
