spam call car crash
although they’re always spam calls, she will always answer an unknown number calling with a 612 area code. whenever a Minneapolis number calls she worries someone got hurt. it could be the sheriff calling.
her mom was hit by a drunk driver around 6 years ago, and she didn’t find out until the next day. lighting doesn’t strike twice, she reasons, and it’s not likely her mom would get into a second accident like that one. but to miss that call a second time - that’s not something she could live with.

crash by Dave Matthew’s band
I wanted to give the feeling of things running into each other.
if collision could be destiny
if the cars crashing were supposed to, this whole time, run over the white lines / bounding across a field to stand in the middle / an embrace like crowd crush
let’s learn to solder so we can be together forever
like man made conjoined twins
let’s get surgery and switch kidneys
you inside of me and me inside of you. run at the wall
and let your atoms pass through it.
