Sponkie hung on 'Mota as usual and followed him about the porch and then into the house like a small child its mother. He didn't sit down and was stoned again, laughed often and looked at me with his heavy-lidded eyes. I poured them drinks and then raised the music and sang along, a man alone, so that I wouldn't hear their endearments.
'Mota shouted something at me, and then lowered the music, coughed phlegm and said we needed to get out of the house. I agreed to go with them to an 'after tears' at a bar, an after-funeral gathering of people who that morning had buried someone I knew, a not very salient rascal I thought of him, yet whose funeral I should have attended.
