“Mind and Body”
K.S. 4/27/12
Your breath was harried,
Your chest tight,
Burning,
I watched you,
Protecting you,
The wind blew cool,
Rough,

We were a long way from home,

Your body betrayed your mind,
Pressing closer,
My breath warmed the nape,
Of your neck,
Signaled your body to,
Press closer,
I tried to maintain control,

We were a long way from home,

A challenge I got from my cousin.

The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.
