Convention: Part TwoIn this follow-up to Convention: Part One, I return to the sacred prairie grounds of my childhood — where silence was holy, dresses were regulation-length, and folding chairs marked the line between sinner and saved.
But Part Two goes closer in. Past the lawnmowers, the crustless sandwiches, the illusion of belonging. Into the cracks.
If Part One gave you the lay of the land, this one walks it barefoot.Dust, doubt, obedience — and a child learning to hold her breath.
