Grandpa -
People will come, grandpa. They'll come to Northbrook for
reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up on your
driveway not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll
arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past.
"Of course, we won't mind if you look around," you'll say. And
they'll walk off to the bleachers, sit in their short sleeves on a
perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats
somewhere along the baselines, where they sat when they were
children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game,
and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The
memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from
their faces. Oh people will come, grandpa. People will most
definitely come.
