Ensuing an inopportune foreclosure on the Holloway residence and the sequential bankruptcy of their multigenerational bakery, Marisole must withstand the severance of herself from her childhood neighborhood and her stunted umbrella of familiarity with Life. In spite of her incessant proclamations of dissatisfaction, she discovers herself and her parents swiftly relocated from sweet-tempered Macon, Georgia, to unrepenting western Birmingham, Alabama. With her palpitating heart receding from her sleeve, and similes surging from her voluptuous lips, Marisole will infallibly unearth something-whether it resolves to be herself or another essence of aliveness. copyright © 2015 taygetsthegay / freethelgbt contest entry • 2015
