It’s a warm May night. I’m parked on a South Philadelphia residential street with all of the windows down. I’m trying to take deep belly breaths as I listen to Beyonce’s Lemonade. Hoping to breathe in some of her confidence like the Hocus Pocus witches breathe in youth. And breathe out some of these nerves.
