Wedding Album

Howie Good

    Afternoons after school, my father had a job in a slaughterhouse. Too undernourished and scrawny to hoist sides of beef, he counted them as they passed on a conveyor belt. Guests looked on with the agonized faces of bleeding saints when a year later he married my mother. A farmer sang at the wedding about his favorite crop and then it was the best man’s turn to speak. He had barely begun when my father interjected, “Spare us your life philosophy.” Everything was burning. People, drapes, carpets, tablecloths – everything. The flames only stopped leaping long enough to pose for pictures.
