Zach Linge reads "Fingers on a Gay Man"

In this narrative, two boys encounter a rabbit they intend to harm. The rabbit tells them a story about meeting a priest at a truck stop in Mississippi. The priest, who has a complex past, shares wisdom about the interconnectedness of souls. As the rabbit narrates, the priest undergoes a transformation, symbolizing ancient wisdom. The boys, intrigued but unable to grasp the deeper meaning, let the rabbit escape. The story explores themes of transformation, wisdom, and the failure to recognize deeper truths.

In what way do the boys' questions reflect their desire for knowledge?

What does the phrase 'single cloth of the type who dies and rises again' suggest about the themes of identity and transformation?
