8. Part II: "Marry...Or Burn"

Cody's down-spiraling. “There I was,” he says, “18 years old and a blaster in the coal mines.”  Jamie demands he stop sleeping around, or else, get married. He subjects Cody to a verse from First Corinthians: “I say therefore to the unmarried and widows," it reads, "It is good for them if they abide even as I. But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.” Stop fornicating, Cody is told, or excommunication from the family church is looming. There is a third option: cruising the streets of Middlesboro in search of streetwalkers to douse the burning.
