Today is young Kimrock's birthday. He puts money on a horse that comes in eighteen to one. It brings him no joy. He is going through adolescent angst. He looks at Prigentia who is strutting her brilliance, and thinks 'I could have been someone. Well, so could anyone.' Over an extended cappuccino he scribbles his thoughts on a paper serviette. 'You took my dreams from me when I first found you. I kept them with me babe, I put them with my own. Can't make it all alone. I've built my dreams around you.'
At his Creaive Thuikning evening class he shows his writing to the teacher (Augustus Albi) who reads it and asks if he’s still singing ‘Galway Bay’.
