我整夜整夜地一个人呆在这个生疏的屋子里，只有墙壁发出些莫名其妙的声音。我坐在被房东锁上了的电话机旁，回忆着过去的一些对话——那是妈妈的声音，还有已失去联络的好友说的话。我写信，写从来不寄出去的信，里面全是只有我才知道的真心话。

I recalled images of teenage mothers weeping or cursing in front of the New Orleans Superdome, their listless infants hoisted to their hips, and old women in wheelchairs, heads lolled back from the heat, their withered legs exposed under soiled dresses.
