Tell me about your version in the comments. I think we’re all driving toward it. Next week: Searching for “Cobalt Midnight” in the canyons of Utah.
She wasn’t a person. She was the crack in the dry ground. She was the way the heat makes the horizon wobble.

I decided to find her. Or it . Or whatever that light was.
