Is There a Word for That?
- Sitting at Flora's window, Ulysses looks out at the world.
- He sees the streetlight and the other windows on her street and thinks of flying; then he thinks through stuff that's happened today with Flora's parents.
- Finally, he imagines food.
- Ulysses starts to imagine words letter by letter, as if he were spelling them out on the typewriter.
- He knows he's not supposed to, but he can't help it—Ulysses wants to type the words banished and homesick.
- Ulysses flies into the air and lands on the door nob to open the door.
- Then he flies downstairs and eventually comes to the typewriter.
