Fitz, liked the column. BUT "searching for the daily outrage that would provoke both men to LAY awake in their empty beds"? LIE awake! yrs, Grandma Grammarian
How can a bed be empty if there is someone lying in it? Maybe "lonely beds." Thank thegoodlord there is a Part II, because Part I is pretty depressing. Looking forward to it.
Wow! Like reading a suspense novel! I didn't realize at first that this was a two-parter, so I'm now anxiously awaitig the second half. Thanks for getting my heart rate up!
I love the narrative voice in this and the switch between the perspectives of the two men. It is both jarring and intriguing which creates a wonderful effect! I'm super excited for part 2!
Great stuff! I like the "necropolis" reference, and the inclusion of a reference to the walls. Very nicely descriptive of the characters. Very descriptive of sections of Tucson and its Metro area in so many respects! I wonder if Ms. Lake's staff would approve of a large number of Glocks showing up at her rallies and campaign events. Her security would be as nervous as a cat in the dog pound.
I have had pro-choice, and anti trump signs in my yard for years.
I have a BLM flag hanging from my eaves.
I live in a trumpy neighborhood.
But I have had several people I didn't know stop by and thank me for the display. For one reason or another, they're afraid to put a sign out.
One lady said she told her children if they ever needed help, mine was the house to go to.
I've gotten plenty of hate, too.
Busted window on my truck, yelling, and flipping us off.
But we are out there, and I use my white privilege to the best of my ability.
I can't wait for Part 2!
