I heard a frantic pounding as I walked past the house.
His face was familiar.
Memories.
Looking outward.
Fear and awe.
My trembling hand was clamped by a neighborhood girl walking to Kindergarten.
Boo Radley in To Kill a Mockingbird.
Home
Inside, too small.
Outside, too big.
Security and freedom.
Every day.
Of my life.
So, I knock on the door.
“What’s the secret,” he asked.
“I’ll show you,” I said, “Let’s walk around the block.”
“Why am I so afraid?”
“The world is scary.”
“Do you think so, too?”
“Everyone is afraid. You are not alone.”
“Take my hand.”
