I began writing this work in 2019 having been invited to help my friend Blair Braverman on her quest to complete her first Iditarod, the dogsled
race across Alaska. While she was competing with fourteen dogs, I was to take care of eighteen dogs that she had chosen to leave behind only a day before embarking on the race.
63 miles into the Denali Highway, accessible only by snowmobile or dogsled, I stayed in a cabin the size of a large walk-in closet for what was meant to be two weeks, hitching the dogs to a sled several times a day.
After managing to right the sled with one hand, I stood on the runners, watching the dogs watching me, thinking about my next step.
I n the moments when I had been on the ground, being dragged, feeling something absolutely wrong happening to my hand,
I remember now how very lucid I was: terrorized, thrilled, and simply disappointed that this would prevent me for continuing this dream-like, solitary experience.
And as I stood on the runners, a crimson geyser on white issuing from my hand, I was both very afraid and very excited.
What comes next, I thought.
This is a piece that explores eruptions of torn violence alternating with contemplation and solitude.
