Everyday Yeah one-thousand two-hundred and nine

We left at 8am. A man with a scratchy voice was yelling at cars in the street. Yeah was hungry so we stopped at a bodega on the west side of Providence. I bought two bananas and a Vitamin Water. Yeah bought a lottery ticket and looked inside the ice cream cooler for two minutes. Ten minutes after we left the Bodega Yeah was hungry again. We passed an abandoned McDonalds. I saw a dead cat, but didn’t point it out to Yeah. A firetruck went somewhere. There was a motel and another motel. At a traffic light a car stopped on a green to let us cross. We walked up a hill. I found a stick and gave it to Yeah. He waved it at cars. I worried we didn’t know where we were. Yeah said, “It doesn’t matter where we are.” We kept walking. At some point we might turn around and walk home. At Peeptoad Brook Yeah threw a stone in the water and then we kept walking. We each found a walking stick. Yeah swung his over his head and yelled, “Mother, mother, motherfuckerssssssss.” A man stopped and asked where the highway was. Neither of us knew. The man seemed upset and kept driving. The sun came out. I took off my scarf. Yeah took off his shirt. A car yelled at us. Yeah raised his walking stick in the air. It was noon. I worried we might never get to Connecticut. My legs hurt. Yeah pointed at a gas station. We kept walking. I saw a store that sold guns. Yeah ran inside. I kept walking. A few minutes later Yeah caught up and said, “I almost bought one.” I saw a dog. It didn’t follow us. Around two o’clock I saw a billboard that said, “Buy a car, just minutes from Brooklyn, CT.” We kept walking. Over the next hill I saw a green and white sign. As we got closer I saw it said, “Connecticut Welcomes You.” I walked over the state line and then turned around. Yeah said he didn’t feel like stepping over the state line. We turned around and began walking back the way we’d come. Yeah held out his thumb. We walked for twenty minutes before someone pulled over. I got in the back. There was an Italian guy with a diamond stud in his ear in the driver’s seat and a Portuguese man in the passenger’s seat. They drove us back to Providence.
