Then He Laughed
A second later something I said landed and the whole face opened up.
// Story
This story imagines, it does not document. It is what the photograph made me feel.
Both hands are folded on the cane now, like the laugh needed somewhere to lean too. Behind him the glass holds another man sitting in the dark of the shop. I kept the shutter going because this is the version of him I want to remember.
