About This Piece

There's a specific moment when you realize all that energy went toward defending people who were never actually on your side. It stings for a minute, and then it just becomes clarity — the kind you don't get back to being confused about again. This one's for the woman standing on the other side of that realization, not still stuck inside it. Soft ring-spun cotton with a true-to-size unisex fit.
