The Earnest Liberal's Lament

I know monks masturbate at night
That pet cats screw
That some girls bite
And yet
What can I do
To set things right?

~ Ernest Hemingway

"He works where it's metal on metal. Motors beat eardrums. Coolant baptizes cut knuckles. He lifts steel up. Drills holes. Puts steel down. And his lungs get smaller every day."

Just read the book "Birds" written by @MargaretAtwood with illustrations by Billy Sullivan. A great looking book with exceptional content. Glad I added it to my collection!

Micro-flash version of "hollow"--a piece from the book DEVOTION, was recently shortlisted by SmokeLong Quarterly. Not a win, but a step in the right direction.

"Back at camp. Crickets chirp. Frogs peep. She sits on a stump. Knives her in belly. Bucket clenched between her knees."

DEVOTION — ten stark stories.

No comfort. No compromise.

Just loss, ache, love, and the dark shit we carry.
