won
raze i saw myself as a solemn child, shaped by a tenderness i never knew when we were in each other's lives. my hair was parted in the same place as yours. another boy embraced you in your parked van. i felt left_out. "jump into my free arm," you said. you saved your strongest side for me. as you held two counterfeit sons against your chest, the camera cut to an otherwise empty parking lot. an altered version of bruce springsteen's "out in the street" served as the soundtrack for the moment unmade. "i hugged you," bruce sang, "like we'd both won the street." but what is the open road worth when your feet can't reach the throttle? 230929
