About this episode
Dandelion
By John Shade
Before the border wall, we scatter.
Dandelions.
The nanomachines grind us down and we float up and through the cracks, molecule to molecule, like holding hands.
Leena hesitates, is left behind. She stands apart on the wrong side of the wall. She presses her hand to the cool, shaded concrete. We feel it through the upload.
