mama never taught me how to swim , chris . the words sit a tangled confession at the corner of pursed lips . she clenches her jaw around a great healthy fear . that vertigo that tosses your insides , keeps the daring children who haven’t yet experienced the cruel crack of bone from leaping wildly over the edge . the height , an easy twenty feet to a warm summer pool , was a drop measured in miles in youth . “ jump . . . ? ” / @bulltrue
