His hair's length defies his school's dress code, touching
the shoulders of his beige dinner jacket, worn
over an orange mesh, sleeveless tee. Baggy
charcoal gray boot-cut jeans' frayed cuffs pool around

obstruct or forbid his attendance at his
Junior Homecoming dance, along with the young
man, his new boyfriend, who, with him, intends to
dance every dance.
