Browns Requiem


      Stopped at the light at Sunset and Doheny, i checked my watch then hitched myself up in my seat and gulped in the moment ; 6.42pm, Friday 2nd July. I committed the night air, the cloud formations, and the faces of the passersby to memory. It was my moment, spawned by my covenant and it would never be again. The light changed and i drove into Beverley Hills.
