June

Faced with another summer in Kuwait, still a visitor with localized feelings of general discontent, I move throughout the day and trade sporadic numbness and unreality for a few laughs and an occasional sense of achievement.

I want to know if I can take all my lessons--all comprehensions and all warnings and ride them hard, put them away wet; I want to know if I can move on from here knowing that there has been some point made somewhere along the line.
