Bilingual Being (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

Not here. Not now.
Not today, in this pretty place.
I feel sand tickling underneath my feet, the sun in my long hair, a soft breeze on my walking legs.
A sense of peace begins to hold me, an unfamiliar fragrance, a thread of self connects with new sensations, infuses hope.
It’s such a lovely, different sort of day from life in town: sweet cottages nestled up against the edges to our left, open water on the right, waves teasing as we walk along the beach: mother, brother, female, her friendly son my age and size, and me. Lac St-Joseph, Quebec, summer, 1961 or ’60.
Toxic cognitions infect me long after that day has passed: I can’t get a break.
It always ends like this.
Nothing ever changes.
Experienced in French, but installed in English.
Thoughts I can’t escape.
A big wave, and the boy is wet, but surely he’s not cold – it’s hot.
It’s true I have an undershirt to share, and we’re both three or four, so it’s bound to fit.
But I don’t want to strip half naked in this open space.
