ATTENTION

I'm self-conscious.

Return to your homes.

One morning, William Moon was eating breakfast in the campus cafeteria at Mississippi College in Clinton, "a crewcut student wearing mesh step-in casuals sat down to a tall stack of pancakes. He was a methodical fellow. After a prayer running almost a minute, he pulled from his briefcase a Bible reading stand, clips to hold the book open, a green felt-tip, a pink, a yellow, next came a squeeze bootle of liquid margarine, a bottle of Log Cabin syrup wrapped in plastic, a linen napkin, and one of those little lemony wipes. The whole business looked like the old circus where twelve men get out of a car the size of a trash can...I thought he was going to pull out a water-Pik and the Ark of the Covenant next." In this sketch, Moon offers a glimpse of the true self--unself-conscious, unpretentious, immersed in life, absorded in the present moment, breathing in God as naturally as a fish swimming in water.
