When and if one of the dryers ever
stopped, I planned to rush over to it with my shopping basket of damp clothes.
Understand, I'd been hanging around in the laundromat for thirty minutes
or so with this basketful of clothes, waiting my chance. I'd already missed
out on a couple of dryers--somebody'd gotten there first. I was getting
frantic....even if I could get my clothes into a dryer it would still be
another hour or more before the clothes would dry....Finally a dryer came
to a stop. And I was right there when it did. The clothes inside quit tumbling
and lay still. In thirty seconds or so, if no one showed up to claim them,
I planned to get rid of the clothes and replace them with my own. That's
the law of the laundromat. But at that minute a woman came over to the
dryer and opened the door. I stood there waiting. This woman put here hand
into the machine and took hold of some items of clothing. But they weren't
dry enough, she decided. She closed the door and put two more dimes into
the machine. In a daze I moved away with my shopping cart and went back
to waiting. But I remember thinking at that moment, amid the feelings of
helpless frustration that had me close to tears, that nothing--and, brother,
I mean nothing--that ever happened to me on this earth could come anywhere
close, could possibly be as important to me, could make as much difference,
as the fact that I had two children. And that I would always have them
and always find myself in this position of unrelieved responsibility and
permanent distraction.
