Everything Will Be OK? Tell that to the rocking horse, man. We had simply wanted to go for a stroll to get out of the house and to try and briefly fool ourselves into thinking it was not 2020 but here was a 2020 metaphor staring us straight in the face, the wooden rocking horse’s googly eye seeming stricken, like it was asking, in what I imagine as a high-pitched, frantic squeak, “What just happened?” The yard sign a few houses down decreeing that Everything Will Be OK felt even more untrue than usual framed through this light. If, as cursory research suggested, this bulldozing stemmed from the lot having been sold, whoever previously owned the house seemed to have left behind a few possessions, including a wooden rocking horse, sitting beside the front steps that now led to nothing. Except now the house was gone, having been knocked down, the bulldozer still standing there, as if proudly lingering over its demolition. The other day My Beautiful, Perspicacious Wife and I took a walk along one of our usual routes, passing a house we had not passed more than a week ago.
