Reopen

by Susan Isla Tepper

My life has never been the same. Do the people who endured the other plagues feel this way or am I a complete loser? Everything I knew and loved was shut down and most didn’t reopen, and I didn’t reopen on some level. Perhaps my heart stitched shut. What reopened tastes different. It looks different, too, do I?
