I am walking through a college town. It has the appearance of a large city in a small space. As if the town has been compressed. The Compressed Town. I walk past a Home Depot's garden shop. They have full grown plants that need to be put into water to survive. I buy them all, since many are vegetables and herbs I have been unsuccessful at growing. Two of the plants were red lettuce. My brother sees me buying the plants.
"Why you buying plants," he laughs.
I ignore him.
