we need much bigger pockets, I thought as I lay in bed, counting off the seven minutes that it takes a normal person to fall asleep. We need enourmous pockets, pokcets big enough for our families, and our friends, and even the people who aren't on our lists, people we've never met but still want to protect. We need pockets for buroughs and cities, a pocket that could hold the universe.
