I don’t know a damn thing anymore.
And I’m lying here trying to cough up my God damn lung, thinking about how Claudia would lie in her bed when her mama rubbed Vicks on her, thinking about how me and Claudia ain’t so different after all. Thinking about how maybe me, a girl so yellow she’s almost brown, coughing with Vicks vapor rub on her chest, and Toni Morrison ain’t so different after all.
