The Forge Literary Magazine retweeted
"Tori Amos and I live in a foster house off of Texas Highway 321. It’s temporary in the sense that we don’t matter."
This piece is a triumph - that I wrote it, that I published it, that I survived it.
Unending thanks to @forge_litmag for choosing it.
Please give it a read.
