Journal Article
Lucy-Ann and the Toads
2023
Overview
[...]I asked What if I could do that to my boyfriend? [...]my mama's old boyfriend that wouldn't stop stalking her, always popping up at the supermarket and the church parking lot and whatnot-I did him, too. When I walked in the door LucyAnn had decorated the whole cabin in gardenias and baby's breath and had made a simmer-pot of cinnamon and apples so the whole house smelled like a love potion and she said I'd like to fall in love with each other again, and she sat down in my lap in her pink nightgown and I said Okay. [...]we drank the love potion, and I laid Lucy-Ann down on the kitchen table until we felt the good old things again and we stayed loving like that until we lived just long enough to feel like forever, hoping we'd never come back as tadpoles but as different birds of prey than we had learned to be, preferably ones with wings.
