The Things I Forget
Kathi Wolfe
Talmudic tradition holds that blind people can quote from scripture with particular accuracy. As a child, I didn't study the Bible much. Groucho Marx was the saint in our house. My blind mind's eye saw the Holy Book through a fun house mirror: God, holding my white cane, jumped out of a burning bush in Fredonia. Abraham, Isaac and Joseph smoked cigars: I don't mean to be a fly in the rabbinic ointment. But I forget what I ate for lunch today (peanut butter or tuna?), what you wore when we met (jeans and a red t-shirt?), how old you were when you died. |
