GRACK! is Back!

Here you go, my latest Web column. I’m rather fond of this one. Maybe when you read it, you’ll understand.

[GRACK!] Evermore

It was Friday afternoon, and the post office was full of Indians. Maybe it was like that every Friday, I didn’t know. But there they were, old women mostly, and many of them seemed not to have seen each other since the last time they checked their mail. I stood in line and waited forever. The holdup was an Anglo family of four getting passport photos and applications. (The Indians all had P.O. boxes and didn’t need to wait.) In front of me was a tall white man with short hair and a jeweled stud in his left earlobe, wearing an long black leather overcoat. The Pueblo women were five feet tall at most and moved around like a slow river. I felt like I was in another time.
