Deep breath in and deep breath out and watch the curtain bend and sweep across the dust and the dirt when they call your name, Whiplash, and hear the crowd go wild and feel their eyes bore holes through your soul and let your gaze drift from the faces of people who view you only as entertainment to the obstacle course of glass bottles and targets in front of you, deep breath in and deep breath out and blink until the grogginess of another sleepless night drowns in your own adrenaline and the little white lines from backstage finally kick in and deep breath in and heartbeat hammering and saunter into the spotlight just to feel it burn and singe your skin and uncoil the whip from between your fingers with a dazzling smile and mask the childhood and mask the pain and hear the roar of the crowd and kick up dust with the curl of the whip and crack, watch the bottles explode and feel yourself explode-

and shatter, and fall.

There's still the echo of applause when he falls backwards against the wall of their trailer, rundown steel creaking and groaning as he does so.

He tosses a piece of the shattered glass into the basket by his bed, a collection of many colors for the dying and the damned. "Think we'll ever make enough to get outta here?" He says to the empty space filled only with the one person he'd ever loved.

"Yeah, we will."

He chews on the lie while it chews on him.
