Weapon of Choice

Weapon of Choice is a recollection of one haunting summer and its brutal effects. Loneliness, roaming youths, violence and predators. We were wild nocturnal in the dark, warm nights. Summer left quickly and before my 15th birthday, I got my hair cut short. Strangely, that was something that hurt me the most. In one of my dreams, I was in a Fatboy Slim’s video clip. Christopher Walken and I danced along. All summer long I felt like I had no control of my life. But at that moment, I felt invincible. So I packed my suitcase and left for overseas because I had Weapon of Choice: luck and strength to run away and make my life my own.
