Some words need other words, like some people need 
other dogs, or people, or sometimes, a kite made out of 
onionskin, or even, at times, a metaphor. You ask me why 
now, because, I say, I am thinking of one: buttery. It needs 
someone. It needs someone the way I need something, 
walking out into traffic, not exactly smiling, but smooth, 
and certain.
