Grieving a Childhood Friend
Patrick T. Brown
Plough Quarterly
When I remember Tim, I remember tennis shoes sticking to concrete floors.

The Seattle Mariners, who have yet to make a World Series in their forty-four-year history, used to play in the grey, dank Kingdome, where the floors seemed to be permanently coated in the evaporated residue of spilled soda. Your feet would stick slightly as you made your way up the ramps to the third deck, where we local Catholic homeschoolers would sit on our nights out, waving our arms to “Hip Hop Hooray” as Ken Griffey Jr. came to bat, eating peanuts in the bleachers in the mid-nineties.

I don’t expect that resonates with you; childhood memories will always be an abstraction to those who didn’t live through them. But like being in a fraternity or an Army unit, there’s a kind of bond between the people who do share those formative experiences. You look forward to reminiscing about them over drinks on a porch as kids play freeze tag. And there are only so many others who can relate to your own specific memories. When one is gone, you feel it. Hard.
