DON'T LOOK MY WAY By reamscale "DON'T LOOK MY WAY" is a coming-of-age tale wrapped in the dust and echoes of a small-town estate, where the borders between innocence and awakening blur beneath the weight of time. Told from the perspective of a boy navigating boyhood, friendship, and the early turbulence of adolescence, this evocative narrative weaves the rhythms of everyday life-school, church, neighborhood adventures-with the undercurrents of emotional awakening and self-discovery. Set against the backdrop of an aging school and a town carved in contradiction, the story explores how relationships evolve-how a timid girl next door becomes part of the narrator's story, not by grand moments, but through the slow unfolding of shared glances, subtle gestures, and the silent bonds of youth. As time passes and adolescence bites with all its irony and urgency, friendships shift, boundaries blur, and curiosity gives birth to vulnerability. Rich in nostalgic detail, dark humor, and emotional grit, Her Guard Dog unspools the quiet, unseen transformations that shape us long before we understand them. In a world where childhood ends not with a bang but a shrug, loyalty, longing, and identity flicker beneath the surface like something half-tamed-like a dog that only answers to one voice.

Chapter One throws you straight into chaos. The streets are alive with desperate energy, every corner filled with people ready to fight, flee, or survive. Cars screech, pavement cracks, and the air is thick with tension, smoke, and the smell of survival. Amidst it all, I roll in like an angel untouched by the madness, scanning, laughing, and trying to navigate this festival of chaos without losing myself. This isn't fiction-it's real-life street apocalypse, raw and unapologetic.

A poem about walking around in the neighborhood you used to live. Expecting a warm embrace of feeling home, you are met with a distant memory of a former self. You grief who you once was, walking the steps you used to take.
