About Maps

Zoë Bird

Looking at maps used to make me dizzy. I’ve made up towns like Sugarlips, Texas
and become convinced they exist. My husband taught me the compass rose. Now
what? I might walk right past the lines, past Pie Town and into an owl’s ear. I might
die out there, in the land of no-map. It might be a missile-testing range. Alrighty then.
