# TO BILL DENBROUGH
|
|
*just for you*
|
|
|
|
You stuttered and still led. You wrote stories where the monsters
|
|
lost because you needed one universe where that happened. You
|
|
carried Georgie's death like ballast nobody could see and still
|
|
rode into the deadlights on a bicycle built for two.
|
|
|
|
"He thrusts his fists against the posts and still insists he sees
|
|
the ghosts" — the sentence you beat into rhythm until fear had
|
|
grammar. Leader isn't the one who talks best. It's the one who
|
|
rides back down.
