Publisher’s Note
Dedication
Acknowledgments
Can’t Find
Awake
A Low Moan
Tumble Backward
Spontaneously
That’s the Good News
Thirty Minutes Later
The More
Will I Walk
How Can I Leave
Nothing He Said
I Guess I Was Lucky
Now My Stripping Days
Our Goodbye Was Bittersweet
She Divorced Me
House of Hope
He Used Her
My Soul
I Swore
The Truth, However
He Picked the Bones Clean
As Far as I Know
I Was Stunned
The Crowd Began to Thin
At Some Point
I Wanted the Sex to Convince Him
La Dolce Vita
I’m on My Way
Need Rises Up
A Chat
Overdosing on Heroin
Withdrawing from Heroin
Unbelievably
As Rehabs Go
My Day
I’m Told
Perceived?
I Look at Her
I Don’t Expect Sympathy
Derailed
I Don’t Out Bryn
Screaming into the Silence
Walk Straight
Teen Prostitute
I’ve Confessed None
I’ve Been Courage Building
Now That She’s Opened Her Mouth
Unless You Can Coerce It
The Sex Trade
On Weekdays
These Thoughts
Heart at War with Head
Backward in Time
I Describe
The Disgusting Details
Imprisoned
One Day Blurs
Equilibrioception
This Will Be the Day
Half-Sad
Are You Out of Your Mind?
Even Better
Go Right Ahead
Nurse Carolyn
Rocking
The Dream Dissolves
Time Drags
And . . . His Engine Fires
Why Does Everyone Insist
Post Prayer
To Be Perfectly Honest
My Love for Language
We Write
This Morning
We Go Around the Room
If So
Won’t That Depend
I Start My Story There
My Story Nears Its Conclusion
Choreographing a New Show
At First
To Keep
One Excellent Thing
What Is She Asking?
Passionate
Especially Not
Unlike Charlie
We Talk
Into the Shadows
One Thing About Rehab
I’ve Tried
A Half Hour Later
There Are Problems
Not Sure
I Don’t Mention That
Planting Seeds of Change
Now That a Different Seed
The Unexpected Question
Now That I’ve Determined
I Don’t Feel Guilty
Fortuitously
How Much Is It Worth
Last Week
My Andrew
My Counseling Session
Ice Broken
She Trails Off
I Learn
I Also Learn
Which Brings Me Back
I Look at Sarah
The Truth Is Persistent
How Do I Believe
Busting My Pity Bubble
Mom’s Expression
Hurt Surfaces
Okay, I Did Not Expect That
He Got What He Deserved
Earth to Cody
I’m Speechless
Yeah, My Eyes Work Fine
We Laugh Together
Go Ahead, Label Me Cynical
Sitting Up
I Keep Thinking
Iris Has No Regrets There
I Only Hope
Play It by Ear
I Tuck My Cell
The Chime
We Put Away
I Love That She’s Worried
The Rest of Her Story
Complications
I Didn’t Expect
Of Course, As Soon as I Think
It’s Thanksgiving
Think Outside the Box
Around Two P.M.
Born Philip
Pippa Skips the Pie, Too
I Don’t Mention
Home
Reconnection
Free
My Arms Are Tattooed
It’s Weird
So, the Turkey Was Dry
Today Is Black Friday
I Spot a Possible Few
Before I Can Answer
How Many Times
I Haven’t Talked to Dad
He’s Reluctant
Okay, I Get
I Hold On to the Thought
Not My Type
Thanksgiving Is Weird
But Here at Walk Straight
After That
Such Thoughts
Except, I’m Not Sure
Hope Surges
Sarah’s Phone Rings
Rhonda Was Asleep
Sleep Is Evasive Tonight
By First Light
Blame
You’d Think
A Stark Reminder
He Studies Me Closely
His Grin
What the Hell
Add Vince
I Agree
A Sudden Jolt
But There’s a Lot
Scarecrow
Stealing Time
I Climb into Bed
I Only Think About Alex
Post-Pleasure
Before I Can Figure Out
That Makes Me Laugh
How Does Anyone Know
MISSING TEEN’S BODY FOUND
I Stop There
It’s After Hours
At the Sound
Living with Me
Winter Approaches
The Main Thing
Intuition
What Peter Wants
Could Have Fooled Me
In Need of Fresh Air
Adrenaline Pumping
That Proves
Disturbed
Despite It Being Saturday
I Keep My K12 Program Open
I Invest Four Hours
The Santa Cruz Boardwalk
We Could Skip the Train
My Mood Improves Again
The Arcade
It’s a Damn Fine Burger
His Concern Seems Genuine
Finally, the Two of Them
Now Someone Yells
Reaching for Me
It’s Been a Nightmare Few Days
The Best Thing
Speaking of Feelings
I Wanted to Do It
A Half Hour Later
I’ve No Clue
Worry? Me?
Don’t Worry
Once We Get Back
We Stare
And I’m Crying, Too
Some Conversations
Been Practicing
He Makes Me Work Hard
After Lunch
So Much to Learn
Almost Time
By the Time
We Are Interrupted
Tailed by Federico
Kick Ass
Christmas
Going Home Tomorrow
Good Point
Ten Minutes
I Raise My Hand
Lecture Over
Probably My Imagination
And to Think
He Looks Confused
That Realization Strikes
You Can’t Save Everyone
Drowning
A Long Steamy Shower
Dismissed
I Leave David’s
After a Quick Stop
Oh Man
I Chew on It
Somewhere Mid-Event
Coming Home
Getting Used To
Mom’s in Her Office
When the Doorbell Rings
He Takes Me
Haunting
I Thank Him
Ambien
It’s Early Afternoon
A Couple of Days Before Christmas
How Can I Say No
Forgiveness
I Told Him Everything
He Asked Me
I Never Would Have Imagined
Another Tradition
The Cathedral
A Catholic Mass
Andrew Is Right
Post-Mass
The Plan
A Memorable Christmas Eve Eve
Santa Did Come to Call
Last Night
Bad Start to the Day
I’m Actually Very Sure
Tomorrow Is Christmas
Brielle kisses Me Goodbye
Saying Goodbye Sucks
Gram Stays Silent
Sobering
Gram’s Stooped Stucco House
Another Day
Finding a Christmas Eve Flight
When I Called
One More
Squished into a Middle Seat
He’s Gone
One Word
Deserting This World
What Have I Done?
The Question Is
It Would Be So Easy
No Clean Clothes
All Sense
The Direct Approach
He Lunges at Me
I’ll Never Forget
My Parents Pick Me Up
I Don’t Know Why
The Sun Rises
Andrew Is Right on Time
That Makes Me Laugh
The Sense of Family
There Is Discussion
I Toss a Prayer
Can’t Say No
I Wonder How Many People
I Did Not Expect Her Early
He Agrees
The Potpie Rocks
Her Hands Are Empty
Santa Must Be Real
Home
Hard to Leave Love Behind
Yesterday’s Homecoming
The kids Are All in the kitchen
With Time
Empty
Dirty Dishes and an Unmade Bed
In Honor of Dad
After Dinner
It’s the Recipe for Venison Sausage
Move On
Top to Bottom
After the Whole Gifting Thing
That Information
Of Course It Will
It’s an Acknowledgment
Someone Wonderful
Mama and Papa Listen
Tough Question
Whoa
Double Whoa
It’s a Picture-Perfect Christmas Night
