Every Good Boy Deserves Favor by Greg Wands
The boy was too captivated by the glow of the trinket to notice the crease in the old man’s brow. Had he been able to temper his awe, to shut down the sheer wonderment and heart-thumping thrill of the spectacle long enough to switch his gaze to his elder, he might have been startled by the sullen concern in the man’s map of a face. If he’d abandoned the easy pull of the ornament, he might have been able to read the eyes of his aged companion, might have found himself drawn to the enigmatic expression—equal parts regret, longing, wisdom and recognition. If he’d found his way to the old man’s eyes—those weathered windows sunk into the folds of time—he might have sensed a reflective quality; the glimmer of nostalgia peeking out between the cracks and crevices of hard-won experience—the very kind that can’t help but suffocate the magic of discovery even as it grasps wildly for the innocence at its root. But the boy did no such thing—for why would he? It would never occur to him to follow such a folly of pursuit; not with this unqualified miracle right here, in this moment, revealing its endless possibilities to him, and him alone.
I went to @nypl for the first time. They had an exhibit on my favorite writer of all time JD Salinger. It was put together by his son. It had all kinds of things like His typewriter. Old photos. Military patches. News clippings. The original proof of the Catcher and the Rye. Letters between him and his editors. His bookcase. I couldn’t take any pictures though. It inspired me to buy an expensive leather sketch book after. Which I don’t want to draw in now cause I don’t wanna mess up. #nyc #nycphotography #newyorkpubliclibrary #nycwriters #library #photography #leathercraft #leatherbooks #nycarchitecture #holdencaulfield #jdsalinger #catcherandtherye #greatreads #booklover #sketchbook (at NYC Public Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/B50eEkrBMlI/?igshid=poijf2gmwuy2

I let my mind go out and play while I took care of some chores. I watched it from the windows, swinging from the trees. I kept myself from running out to help when I saw it stumble and cry. Sometimes you have to hit the dog on the nose with a rolled-up newspaper to get it to learn. My mind got up and limped away from the place where it fell and got hurt. My chores are more easily performed without that little one getting underfoot. It will come back home when it gets hungry or needs a place to rest. . . #writing #writerslife #nycwriters #daydreaming #prose #writersofinstagram (at Central Park Manhatan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Buqz_zehz-x/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1h113mpt8nwx4
