I’m twenty-seven and looking out through a curtain of flames. Twenty-seven and always cold. A lit match burning in the darkness of this mid-day city. I’m twenty-seven and walking slowly through a city I love that’s yet to love me back, watching people turn my way with expressions on their face that I’ve never seen before, that I’ll never be able to name—not horror or awe, but something far older and strange.
