Deer Huckleberry, I took Magdelena’s little blue suitcase with a mirror inside, and I took her curling iron. One day my hair will be long like Magdelena’s, and I will wind the locks around the hot stick and listen to them sizzle. One day I will braid my hair stiff at my neck like Madgalena, who is never happy. In the South she slits her wrists daily and drips the blood into her Camaro. She takes care of other people’s babies. I want to find her again.
But Huckleberry baby, I will meet you in the dirtiest city you can dream of. We will drink cocktails so sweet they pucker our cheeks, as we perch on leather bar stools. I will buy you plates of calcium and protein and we will run through the streets in excellent danger. Love, Bambi
