What did I—?
P
Don’t touch me yet, okay.
MARY 1
Okay. Why don’t you touch me?
He touches her hands.
P
(To the audience) She is a deer wrapped in brown velvet. She is the air breathing inside the body of a violin.
MARY 1
What?
P
Nothing.
Sorry.
I’m not being myself, am I?
Sorry.
I’m not being myself, am I?
You know that funny phrase—what is it—remember me to your mother. I need you to remember me—to myself. Can you—?

I drew you a picture of a bird.
She hands it to him.

Wow! How is it you can draw such a good bird, only three years old?

That’s the best bird I ever saw. It’s so good I bet it even flies.

I didn’t scare you, honey, did I? We ’re just playing bird.
VIOLET
I know.
dp n="42" folio="190" ?MARY 1
Why don’t we all go to sleep. It ’s been a long day.
P
I’ll sleep right here, just outside the door. You two call me if you need anything.
MARY 1
What? Why, honey?
P
So I can hear.
MARY 1
Hear what?
P
If anyone’s coming.
MARY 1
No one’s coming.
P
Not right now. But when we ’re sleeping. When you sleep outside you can hear the leaves if anyone’s coming. I want to protect you. And Violet.
MARY 1
I know, honey. But it’s safe here. It’s South Dakota. Remember?
VIOLET
Why is Daddy sleeping outside?

To protect you from bad people.

They’re coming through the fog to the shore, the tall ships, and I’m making sure they get here safe . . . real safe . . . I feel a gale of wind coming from the north but I counter it with a gale from the south . . . I pour wind into their sails, and it’s important they get here by morning . . .
