  sublethal: The Frontage Road
From the interstate, the frontage road is liable to appear suddenly.
Sometimes the frontage road runs right alongside the newer highway, just down a gravel or weedy embankment, and then on the other side of the frontage road there’s a small field, and then maybe there are some trees.
The frontage road encourages a driving posture suggestive of a great burden, perhaps the weight of remorse or of secrets or of some other oppressive emotional gravity, burdens that the interstate, by its nature, is prone to alleviate.
