    “Goodnight, Moon”

    Ink on Paper

    On Block Island, my friends had a habit of calling me moon. After clocking off a 12 hour shift at our restaurant, something about seeing a giant red moon emerge over the ocean begged me to shout “Goodnight moon!” walking out the exit. For the past two summers, I have had the unique privilege of calling the rolling hills and steep cliffs of Block Island my home. When I boarded the ferry for the last time, I knew it was the end of anexpository chapter in my life. I was not the young unassuming boy that had once taken a chance on a kitchen job on an island, but someone that boy might not fully recognize, more mature and attune to the virtues and vices of manual labor, love, and adulthood. I learned that work can make any paradise burdensome, and that the sight of the moon on a quiet night can serve as a reminder that just maybe, it all isn’t that serious anyway.

    “Goodnight, Moon” illustrates this process of transition, leaving a seminal place and simpler time that I still long to be back to, but know it is right and necessary to have left behind.
