The Late Lunchers: An Interlude
At lunchtime they had left the office where they both worked and he had driven them down a series of winding side roads until they found the beautiful rolling fields they had once passed and taken note of on an earlier midday jaunt. The fields teemed with richly hued wildflowers and...

UNTITLED
We were walking in the cemetery, my hand resting in hers. I could not remember how we had met, nor could I remember how we had arrived there. It did not matter, for we were both quite happy to be by each other’s side as we traveled from gravestone to gravestone. We gave one another the...

Even though the moon was out, H-Peel could barely see...

Imperfect Mark
A poem. Tear it to shreds.
Bad aim is a blessing--
Because I don't want
To die in war
Or be forced to kill
Others in war;
Because if I am starving
Or I am attacked,
They will be spared
And I will die
Either way;

“Why?” cried Cain. “In the Name of God, I ask why?”
“In the Name of God, it was done,” said the...
