FROSTY VANESSA
Schnick! The pick danced on the rocks again, and a few sparks leaped from the white granite to die quickly in the cold autumn air. Torrance could see Ice crystals left on the pointed tip of the Pick, as the northern wind came whistling through the Aspen trees further up the slope. "Got to get … Continue reading FROSTY VANESSA
God Asked me
What is your worth to the world? What makes you other than sand? What did you add to the effort to keep the stars shining and spinning? "Well, I was always trying to help a lessor one!" Common, many millions before ye! "What else?" I tried to help every child crying, lost, alone... "Also common. … Continue reading God Asked me
Dancing in Life
She won't tell you of her past unless she really knows you. Her loving eyes will dart around you, but not look directly. The pain must have been early and often.

A Beginning, A Grandmother’s Chaw

She couldn't look at me, she had a chew on her heart tougher than the one in her mouth. "I was there, boy, the morning you decided to come. … Continue reading A Beginning, A Grandmother’s Chaw
Sitting on a Barstool
Tell me a story. One you can't tell your momma or your priest. It might even be one you do not want to tell the mirror. Right now, I am where I am supposed to be, and so are you. The world is turning round and round, and people are living and dying. But, I … Continue reading Sitting on a Barstool
God, Can I have Another?
I want the smiles, the laughter, the births of the young one, the music that makes me smile and dance like a madman, the chocolate ice cream dripping onto my shirt, the puppies playing with my shadows chasing their tails while I can only watch and laugh, and someone says nice things about my smiles, … Continue reading God, Can I have Another?
