Fatherhood
Habitus. Runner-Up in Father's Footprint Challenge.
In the memory I am thirteen years old. It’s a cold night in September, a few months into what my dad and I call my science fiction initiation. I sit on the floor of my parents’ room, my back against the foot of their bed. My dad holds a mug of chai tea. His long legs stretch out on the floor. We stare at the TV that rests on my mother’s bureau and wait for it to warm up. It’s an old TV, the square kind with a curved screen I can rap my knuckles on to produce a satisfying hollow thunk.

My Dad. Content Warning.
"I love you more than all the stars in the sky and all the grains of sand in the world." These are the words my dad used to declare his love for me and my siblings. I can still remember sitting on his lap, awe-struck by the sheer magnitude of his love. "Woahhh, every grain of sand?! That's so many!" I would exclaim. He'd repeat those words until they were a mantra embedded deep in my heart.

Grapefruit as Fatherly Love. Runner-Up in Father's Footprint Challenge.
They take work. I’m standing behind the counter where my father peels a white grapefruit. He sections them according to their lines and continues to peel until they are no longer enveloped in the transparent casings and white ribbon. This debris he collects into a pile beside the cutting board.

Doing the Eddie Spaghetti
The above poem was written by me when I was around 12 years old. I sanded down the wood, stained it, shellacked the poem to the wood, and gave it to my dad for Father’s Day. It’s not the greatest poem, but I’m sure it meant the world to my dad at the time. He kept it with him for eighteen years, and it was given back to me by my stepmother after my dad passed away almost twenty years ago.

As I stay here, pondering my life's process, I can't resist the urge to recognize the significant effect a mentor has had on forming my personality.
