best friend’s boy
I had a dream
last night
and you were there by my side
like you always have been
we took our sons to the park
and they played
cops & robbers
your baby was the
cop
and you looked
relieved
I think for the first time
you weren’t thinking about your baby saying
“I can’t breathe.”

🙌🏼 Powerful use of story as in-road to the issue at its heart.
Haunting in the best way.
Thank you so much!!
Love, love, love.
I love the progression to the emotional wallop at the end.
Thank you Mrs. Prather!! :))
