I love meno and his posts, just found myself going deeper and was pulled in by the title dead space.
In the early 2000's i was living in Austin. i headed to Mexico on a bus needing to escape the U.S. i ended up in Oaxaca and fell in love with a girl. Chased her to Puerto Angel. Hammocks and romantic walks down through the fisherman's boats.
When i returned standing in line to get my passport stamped they had the news on the tv's. We were freshly at war with Iraq. I felt the pulse of the U.S. the anxiety washed into me. It was so tangible. I knew i needed to figure a way to get out.
But your comment @nuthman has really hit me as it felt like a fun house mirror. Casting an image that felt like me but wasn't.
