The shamble leg man had been to Montreal Quebec where he bought steamy hot bagels from the St. Vitas Bagel Company. As for other places he had been to none. In place of these places (none of which he had been to with the exception of Montreal Quebec) he went to places that were closer by, places like the green bench beside the aqueduct across from the Seder grocers, and the topmost top of the steeple atop the Waymart across from the church where the harridan’s sister sold her Pop-siècle knickknacks every second Saturday, and places that were misplaced but places just the same.
‘I have been everywhere and nowhere’ said the shamble leg man. ‘I have been here and there, there and here, over there and over here, far over there and over here, I have been many places but no place at all. I have been at the back of the line and at the front of line, to one side of the street and to the other side of the street, I have been near places and far away from places, I have been in front of a child’s buggy and to the rear, the child tugging at my coattails, I have been boundless and bound, weakly and strong, over there and over here’. The sky broken in two, sunshiny warm, the air thick with bluebottles and chilibits. ‘Today I will go some place’ said the shamble leg man, ‘someplace other than here’.
