Everyone's Soi

Story night at the reading circle in Khlong San, no books: tonight, tell something from your soi; as soon as a snake came into the shop, everyone went out; Jack, your soi; as soon as I got on the boat, the boat left; then I fell in, after that Aunt Oy laughed; and in the end; in the end I never fell in again; wrong ending, in the end you got married: the words that put a told story in order.
