    I'm frozen for half a gucci bookbag secondNo one has ever kissed me in my lifeJust my
    parents' pecks on the cheek or forehead, so many years agoThis is something I thought I would
    never feelI'm not sure exactly what it feels like, thoughThere's too much panic, too much
    terror, too much messenger bag prada adrenaline
    I jerk my knee up in a sharp thrust

    @@@@@I could see the longing look in her eyes
    @@@@@I could see the longing look in her eyes when
    she asked themThey were the eyes of a kid who
    knows the closest she's ever going to get to
    realizing her dream of the high trapeze is sitting
    on the bleachers at the Saturday matinee
    performanceShe was a critic, and lots of critics
    who aren't called to do what they write about grow
    jealous and mean and small in their disappointment
    Mary wasn't like thatMary still loved it all
    She drank whiskey from a water-glass and wanted to
    know what it was like when Tinker Bell flew out of
    nowhere and tapped you on the shoulder and you
    823
    discovered that, even though you were on the
    wrinkle-neck side of fifty, you had suddenly
    gained the ability to fly past the face of the
    moonSo even though it wasn't like having a fast
    car or being handed the keys to a fully furnished
    house, I told her it wasBecause you can't tell
    anyone what it's likeYou can only talk around it
    until everyone's exhausted and it's time to go to
    sleep
    But Elizabeth had known what it was like
    It was in her drawings, then in her paintings
    It was like being given a tongue when you had been
    muteIt was like being given
    back your memory, and a person's memory is
    everything, really
    Even from that first line - that incredibly brave
    first line meant to show where the Gulf met the
    sky - she had understood that seeing and memory
    were interchangeable, and had set out to mend
    herself
    Perse hadn't been in it

    For the next four hours, I slipped in and out of
    Libbit's worldIt was a wonderful, frightening
    place to beSometimes I scribbled words - The
    gift is always hungry, start with what you know -
    but mostly it was picturesPictures were the real
    language we shared
    I understood her family's quick arc from amazement
    to acceptance to boredomIt had happened partly
    because the girl was so prolific, maybe more
    because she was part of them, she was their little
    Libbit, and there's always that feeling that no
    good can come out of Nazareth, isn't there? But
    their boredom only made her hunger strongerShe
    looked for new ways to wow them, sought new ways
    of seeing
    And found them, God help her
    I drew birds flying upside-down, and animals
    walking on the swimming pool
    I drew a horse with a smile so big it ran off the
    sides of its face

    “That’s quite a statement, Alex,” countered DeSole“Would you mind explaining it?”
    “You know why I’m here, don’t you?”
    “I didn’t know you were hereIt just happened to be convenient for you to be ‘down the hall’ and ready to come in
    here
    “My office is down the hallQuite far down, I might add
    Conklin looked at the DCI“Again, very smooth, sirBring in three people you figure I’ve had
    no major run-ins with outside of the system itself, three men you’ve determined I basically trust, so
    I’ll believe whatever’s said
    “That’s fundamentally accurate, MrConklin, because what you’ll hear is the truthPerhaps at this end of the table so that our former colleague can study us as we
    explain to himI understand it’s a technique favored by field officers
    “I haven’t a damn thing to explain,” said the analyst as he headed for the chair next to Casset
    “But in light of our former colleague’s somewhat gross remarks, I’d like to study himAre you
    well, Alex?”
    “He’s well,” answered the deputy director named Valentino“He’s snarling at the wrong
    shadows but he’s well
    “That information couldn’t have surfaced without the consent and cooperation of the people in
    this room!”
    “What information?” asked DeSole, looking at the DCI, suddenly widening his large eyes
    behind his glasses“Oh, the max-classified thing you asked me about this morning?”
    The director nodded, then looked at Conklin“Let’s go back to this morningSeven hours
    ago, shortly after nine o’clock, I received a call from Edward McAllister, formerly of the State
    Department and currently chairman of the National Security AgencyMcAllister was

    “You've got the best instincts for this kind of thing; I wanted your opinionThat's why I'm

    voice was utterly serious again“You see, there's this one… a Seeker, no doubt about that–it

    It took me a second to understand the word he usedIt wasn't a familiar part of Melanie's
    vocabularyWhen I understood that he was talking about a kind of gun, the wistful, envious

    “Kyle was the first to notice how this one stood outIt didn't seem important to the
