Here, to wet your whistle, is the first paragraph:
The Uroboros
Mirror
—Basil Rosa—
In the 1980s, while wearing red leather pants, it hit me—I was a girl in a man’s body.
Bopping about, my hair spiked and dyed peacock blue, a ring in one nostril, I
wanted to be Cindy Lauper. I kept my Sony Walkman and earbuds on, determined
never to conform or lose the humor and optimism my favorites songs delivered,
though I vacillated between “Cruel Summer” by Bananarama, and Funboy Three’s
“The Lunatics Are Taking Over The Asylum.”
