This wolf – a novel in progress about impossible love.
In progress
This wolf is a story about hands, stars, contradictions, and love – an undying and an impossible love.
I write this story from the depths and obstacles of a connection so deep it was bottomless.

*** and I
Digital photograph
From This wolf.
This is an important moment. I remember that the man in front of me, the man whose image was on my camera, did not resemble ***. I did not know then that I had just met Balogun.

He said, When I search inside I can’t find myself.

From This wolf.
I can, and might, count this as my one undying love of this lifetime. I’ve been told this doesn’t have to be true. Sometimes I feel, deep in my bones, that it is. Our connection was not normal. Our connection was not of this world. I lost a lot to *** and this love. Some I needed to lose. Some I did not. What we did not get to do was immerse ourselves fully in this space of deep love. For this chance, I fought hard. This fight, I lost.

From This wolf.
The best reminder I could ever have for this love I lost is to have the line
“you loved a man
with more hands than a parade
of beggars”
tattooed on my body.
