You cannot play pretend here.
Instead, let's believe that the world is real.
The embers and darkness and snarling of dogs that come from across the street are real; you will close your eyes at night and that burning house will linger on your retinas and singe your eyelashes. You will awake with charcoal tears on your pillow and bloodied ankles and with your legs split from your hip through your calves.
Real is taking every breath you exhale and blowing it into the heart of something burning.
