Head Above Water

intro (IN) spection

Months of traveling overland, vision clear in all directions, constantly threatened by the fog off of the filthy river.

Any moment, I could be devoured. Any moment, I could slip. Travelling the muddy banks is *that* dangerous.

And then a moment of hope opened up a world of vulnerability. I lost my footing and fell forever into cold choking darkness. Things swim beneath the surface that I can't even name. There is no hope when the hungry roots of the riverbank sentenals grasp your ankles and you have to fight for air.

Poppy Z Brite
