Side of the road

As we were camped on the 59 trying to make our way to Hattiesburg and just blury and bleary – we got a text from a friend ahead of us who said there was an emergency – a man had passed out and needed care – T took my cell phone and ran on the other side of contra flow through the traffic to get to a State Trooper – meanwhile another neighbor had come by and a little collective happened on the side of the road – one part trying to redeem yourself and one part just inherently good and one part trying to just find your way. This is the road away from New Orleans and it’s the road in as well – there is the feet of clay aspect to all of this.
