Child

In Lang's words: "'Child' is my attempt to examine certain experiences as I remember (and misremember) them from my childhood." The title "my very empty mouth" comes from a phrase Lang learned as a child to help remember the order of the planets: mercury, venus, earth, and mars (Lang says he can't remember the rest — of the phrase, that is, not the planets).
