poised　alertly　over　the　fans　of　old　maid　hands；　sharing　a　bottle　of　Coke；

looking　at　the　funnies。　She　loved　having　them　with　her；　and　she　hoped　to　dear

God　that　this　hotel　caretaking　job　Al　had　gotten　for　Jack　would　be　the　beginning

of　good　times　again。

And　the　wind　gonna　rise　up；　baby；

and　blow　my　blues　away　。。。

Soft　and　sweet　and　mellow；　the　song　came　back　and　lingered；　following　her　down

into　a　deeper　sleep　where　thought　ceased　and　the　faces　that　came　in　dreams　went

unremembered。

IN　ANOTHER　BEDROOM

Danny　awoke　with　the　booming　still　loud　in　his　ears；　and　the　drunk；　savagely

pettish　voice　crying　hoarsely：　e　out　here　and　take　your　medicine！　Ill　find

you！　Ill　find　youl

But　now　the　booming　was　only　his　racing　heart；　and　the　only　voice　in　the　night

was　the　faraway　sound　of　a　police　siren。

He　lay　in　bed　motionlessly；　looking　up　at　the　wind…stirred　shadows　of　the

leaves　on　his　bedroom　ceiling。　They　twined　sinuously　together；　making　shapes

like　the　vines　and　creepers　in　a　jungle；　like　patterns　woven　into　the　nap　of　a

thick　carpet。　He　was　clad　in　Doctor　Denton　pajamas；　but　between　the　pajama　suit

and　his　skin　he　had　grown　a　more　closely　fitting　singlet　of　perspiration。

〃Tony？〃　he　whispered。　〃You　there？〃

No　answer。

He　slipped　out　of　bed　and　padded　silently　across　to　the　window　and　looked　out

on　Arapahoe　Street；　now　still　and　silent。　It　was　two　in　the　morning。　There　was

nothing　out　there　but　empty　sidewalks　drifted　with　fallen　leaves；　parked　cars；

and　the　long…necked　streetlight　on　the　corner　across　from　the　Cliff　Brice　gas

station。　With　its　hooded　top　and　motionless　stance；　the　streetlight　looked　like

a　monster　in　a　space　show。

He　looked　up　the　street　both　ways；　straining　his　eyes　for　Tonys　slight；

beckoning　form；　but　there　was　no　one　there。

The　wind　sighed　through　the　trees；　and　the　fallen　leaves　rattled　up　the

deserted　walks　and　around　the　hubcaps　of　parked　cars。　It　was　a　faint　and

sorrowful　sound；　and　the　boy　thought　that　he　might　be　the　only　one　in　Boulder
