The Little Rapist climbs a tree! The Little Rapist crosses the street! The Little Rapist takes a trip in our car!

Him, and the little weasel who organized burglaries in our neighborhood.

Why pictures of these non-persons? Why no pictures of the three who were my friends, especially my childhood bestie? Why no pictures of the beautiful girls I loved?

It's not that I lost interest in photography, there are Instamatic pics all through the decade.

It's that hindsight made the relationships clear, where now I know more fully who was important, and who was driftwood, like these two little criminals-in-training.
