GRIZZLY PEAR

written snapshots

The third person was in the air, so the boy became his own character.

He ride a bike on the trail.
On a slight incline, I tap him on the back.
加油!(press on!)
He pedals for thirty yards before slowing down.

My mom chats while we watch them.
I try a pull-up at the play structure.

A net connects two platforms, she grabs a railing and crosses the divide.
He stands on one side.
勇敢, 我在看着你(be brave, I’m watching you)
不是! Silver Star 不要走过 wires!(nope! Silver Star doesn’t walk on wires!)

thunder in the ground
the first king went to seclusion
in seven days Silver Star rose from the west
