and there at the top of the stairs, looking down in the darkness of the basement below i saw something in the nothing it was a question that i had been trying not to answer for so long that it became an answer in and of itself like an old friend you bump into at the dmv and he says he's glad to see you and he can't believe it's been so long since the two of you talked and how life was rough back then on the construction site and your friend's number comes up. and he smiles and waves and ambles over to the counter to get his license renewed and you turn to your five-year-old son and he asks "who was that man, daddy?" and you tell your son the truth. you say to him "i have no idea, son. i have never met that man before in my life." so i stood there at the top of the basement stairs and looked down into that darkness and saw the question that was also the answer and stepped back and closed the basement door and returned to the living room and sat down on the loveseat.
