Tommy Reckless

Tommy Reckless was Atlanta's quiet kid for twenty years: the calm in every room, the one teachers warned had a storm in him and coaches told to channel before it detonated. He banked every quiet year instead, and the interest compounded. His records are last-hour records on purpose: the speedometer buried, the rearview a rumor, the count-off as a signature. Under the noise sits the discipline of a man who was silent on purpose for two decades and chose his moment.
