raze
i
shove
what's
left
of
my
life
in
a
cardboard
box
and
throw
it
in
the
back
seat.
his
car
is
lined
with
green
leather.
it
takes
three
tries
to
close
the
passenger
side
door
.
you
have
to
slam
it
,
he
tells
me
.
he
says
it's
a
shame
the
bachelor
is
so
much
like
the
married
man
.
he
drives
me
home
as
night
refuses
to
fall
around
us
.
i
ask
what
it
was
that
drew
him
to
teaching
.
he
seems
bothered
by
the
question
.
he
claims
nothing
guided
him
to
what
would
become
his
life's
work
.
things
happened
.
that's
all
.
his
voice
is
as
short
and
clipped
as
his
body
is
bloated.
he
swerves
to
avoid
a
driver
who
can't
colour
between
the
lines
,
and
i
wonder
if
we're
doomed
to
die
behind
the
wheel
,
or
if
this
is
just
another
quick
correction
from
the
pen
of
a
god
who
never
shows
his
face
to
us
.
