But the driver, he jumped out of the car, which made me a little more alarmed.

I thought I was about to get mugged or gay-bashed.

I wasn't sure which.

But he just said, do you know the way to the Sacco and Vanzetti's grave?

We're here for a class project.

And I remembered that in this group, I was the thief.

And I gave him the guidebook I had stolen in penance.

And then he said, who are you here to see?

And anticipating a blank stare in response, I said, Anne Sexton?

And he said, Anne Sexton, is she here?

He turns to the boys in the car.

Hey guys, you remember those Anne Sexton poems we read in English class?

Anne Sexton, I fucking love her!

And I remembered one of my favorite lines of Anne Sexton's poetry is, live or die, just don't poison everything.

And I left there and I vowed to myself that I would always tell my story every opportunity that I got because you never know whose life you might save and you might even change the world.
