I hear rumors of light through my bedroom window: gulls calling to each other, children playing in my neighbor’s yard, a sander grinding as another neighbor polishes his boat. The doorbell to my grandmother’s shore house rings in the hallway and I turn off my book on tape, ditch the headphones, knuckle my way out of my room and down the hall. I touch the back of a chair here and there as I move through the dining room, toe-tap the bottom of the living room couch and finally reach the screen door.
