I. DRAWN TO WHAT I FEARED THE MOST: The first melting -- When I learned that bullets are frozen tears -- Almost flogged -- Under the burqa -- They blew her up 'cause they could not cut her down -- Dust -- Going the distance -- II. UNRAVELING: Vaginas--more terrifying than scud missiles -- The door that blew open -- A world of Brendas -- The memory of her face: Ciudad Juarez -- Waiting for Mr. Alligator -- The scariest thing about prison was not the spiked barbed wire -- Betty Gale Tyson is free -- III. LEAVING MY FATHER'S HOUSE: Reckoning -- Free falling -- The wave that came and took everything away -- IV. FINALLY EXPOSED: INSECURE AT LAST: Smack in the center of America -- Down to the zero of myself -- Diving -- Christmas Eve, 2005 -- In the name of security, they somehow forgot to protect the people.
