I look up at her and don't smile. She looks down into the bin, flips my phone over, and stares at the case, as she's done every day. The case is the cover art for an album called Nevermind by the band Nirvana. Everyday her fingers linger on the baby on the cover, and everyday I don't like her touching it. Nirvana's lead singer was Kurt Cobain. His voice, the damage in it, the way it's not at all perfect, the way you can feel everything he's ever felt in it, the way his voice stretches out so thin that you think it's going to break and then it doesn't, is the only thing that's kept me sane since this nightmare began. His misery is so much more abject then mine.

Then it happened. It started as a hollow buzzing in my ears… an electric saw… far away. Then the cold: arms and legs prickly, and finger numbing. Suddenly I had the feeling I was being watched. A sharp switch in perception. I saw, from some point in the darkness behind a tree, the two of us lying in each other’s arms. I looked up to see a boy of fifteen or sixteen, crouching nearby. 'Hey!' I shouted. As he stood up, I saw his trousers were open and he was exposed.” (Keyes 77)]]> 2021-04-16 13:14:29 UTC https://padlet.com/stacy_pollack/449s80k3jrzugqa/wish/1425250597 https://padlet.com/stacy_pollack/449s80k3jrzugqa/wish/1425258911 "I've moved up another plateau, and now the streams of the various disciplines seem to be closer to each other as if they flow from a single source" (Keyes 115).]]> 2021-04-16 13:16:20 UTC https://padlet.com/stacy_pollack/449s80k3jrzugqa/wish/1425258911 https://padlet.com/stacy_pollack/449s80k3jrzugqa/wish/1425264366 "With Nazario I intend to own this neighborhood and turn El Barrio into my sandbox" (Quiñonez 25).
