I thought his cigarette was a star.
Lit up in the darkness.
The cherry red flickered when he sucked on the end and it was catastrophic.
It was a dead light.
All desolation.
Too late.
They dragged me in.

That's the night I noticed the stars were dying.
Or maybe it's just a cover up.
A cosmic lie.

I chipped my tooth when he pushed me forward .
The puddle was warm.Their hearts were cold.
My salvation was scattered in fresh piss.
Hot lunch, they said. Dig in.
Their laughter was exhausting.

The cigarette sizzled when the soul sucker flicked it at my wet face.
Extinguished.
Just like my humanity.


I forgot for a few hours.

Never shove a window.
Glass shatters.

and the pieces are sharp.

Literal shit.

On Austust 15th the following were left around Austin, with bits of the poem Childhood Is The Kingdom Where Nobody Dies by Edna St. Vincent Millay. written upon each.

Please let me know if your characters find one, where they did, which one they claimed and how they felt about it.


( These were left all around Austin, from North to South, East and West. ALL OVER WHEREVER HUMANS DARE TO GO. )

Bless me but I've taken too much for granted. Lord, those puzzle books were a couple bucks a pop near the register, should have seen them near a million times. Now I'm crawling through rubble for the off-chance I might spot some Sudoku.

Are you busy today, Mr. Minion? Still curious about this Chestnut Tree. I could actually use a drink, after everything with my shelter lately.

So, I've been doing "ADULT" things for a long time now. I have a decent amount of responsibility. A five o'clock shadow. I go to meetings, for crying out loud. So when do the real perks begin? When do I win the "Not Spilling Your 3am Spaghetti-O's In Bed" merit badge?
