As Her


She looked as good and old as her silver Series III XKE.  She stayed at the beach two summers past her prime.  The dogs on the beach would turn and squint their eyes at here when she walked by.  Not everything was as bright as the sun this year.  A few things were, but not everything.

It's like something in a Pier Pasolini film except directed by Lars Von Trier with all of the male lead's scenes filmed in slow motion with an M83 soundtrack.

Used To Swim


When I was but a wee lad, I used to swim in the pool at the Shamrock Hilton Hotel (aka The Cork Club) in Houston Texas.  It was one of the richest, greediest, crook-filled pools in the United States.

The Jackals


My previous life on Blue Jay Way is at best a cautionary tale for the jackals.
