“
Give me joy or pain — this inbetween is so mundane. Let me cry like Hell burning and eating my brains, Or the laughter that my heart is climbing some tall tree. But I hate to be on the ground looking up or looking down. Mark Rentz

At 2:00 in the morning, the lights in the Edgren can seemed to buzz faintly. The mirrors were spotted, and the sinks encrusted with a week's dirt and cried scum. Crude initials and slogans scarred the enameled toilet stalls. Over it all hung the nagging odor of sanitizing cleaner and urinal cakes that couldn’t completely hide the smell of stale urine. I’d just gotten out of the shower and stood naked on the cool floor in front of the sinks, a spectator, sensing my surroundings and yet feeling strangely removed from them. I looked at my image in the mirror. I was not impressed. It seemed ironic that people who knew me would see thus face in the hall and identify it as Dan Miller.” You are Dan Miller,” I said. Sure enough, the face in the mirror moved. It always did. Yet somehow it seemed strange — saying Dan Miller” seemed strange. It was like saying a word over and over until it’s robbed of all meaning and remains only as a foreign-sounding garble of noise. The lights buzzed. “Oh, shit.” It came out quite clearly and well enunciated, though not very loud. Releasing that disgust, rebellion, and resignation felt good, even if I hadn’t said it in a packed hallway, crowded classroom, or murmuring library. But it sounded light-years romnupd from “Dan Miller”; from 3.5 GPA’s, Bible studies, 1 friends who respected my spiritual ma- I got dressed and started to walk out the door, but stopped and slammed my fist against the wall. My knuckles reddened, and they hurt, but it wasn’t good enough. I wanted to see blood on the smooth, cream-colored bricks. I slammed it again. This time it hurt more, but still no blood. Oh, you’re really dramatic!” 1 sneered at myself, “Now you’re supposed to keep slamming it until you get some blood.” My hand still stung as I drove down a deserted country road half an hour later. Throbbing music filled the car. I floored the gas pedal and watched the needle rise. The dark masses of trees on both sides of the road began to hurtle past. The faster 1 went, the more furiously the pain, frustra tion, and bitterness boiled inside me The shocks were bad, and at this speed, every bump or pot hole made me bounce and sway on the verge of losing control. Every muscle and nerve in my hands and forearms was like a taut cord, tensely vibrating. I’d seen photographs of car wrecks: masses of metal crumpled and twisted around a tree, grisly hunks of blackened meat that vaguely resembled human forms, charred flesh that split open like an over cooked hot dog. Yet, I also realized with a serer.e sense of detachment that all I had to do was let go of the wheel and my suffering would soon be over.
