A black & white dog sleeping next to a book opened to p. 13, piece number XIII of There Is News Along The Ohio River. It reads: XIII. There is news along the Ohio River: he comes to visit and asks about her anger, how it's doing, like her shadow's learned to breathe. She tells him it's still there but maybe not quite as bad with some distance, wonders if he has any idea how dificult it was to keep him alive. She shows him the Big Four, buys them cappuccinos from a shop that hosts Dungeons & Dragons tournaments. She used to be the master sometimes, she confesses, but not on the real game, on the version she and her elder sibling played out in the yard when their mama was at work and they looked after each other on sick days, teacher work days, most of summer. She has never recovered from that period, not really, and the old anger mixed with the new has driven her to drink, walk, weep, on repeat like some tragic Victorian protagonist not yet sure she can untangle it all. He misses her more when he's packing his things. She shimmies and sings to seventies rock in the kitchen where the dogs join in with their dinosaurs and the pot's about to boil over. She sends her husband postcards, still trying to add brightness to his fractured days. She does not tell him about the divers who go deep into the river or how they recently found tennis shoes tied to a cinder-block a few feet off shore.
