Fate

You made out the dull sight of hope. A fire dimly lit the cavern where we spoke. Flickering in the night, the flame burnt. Flickering in the night, your fate woke. The bricks on the walls dutifully held onto the light, But the ridges remained rough and unfinished—casting sharp shadows. Talons that clawed their way… Continue reading

What the Table Sees

A finger slowly ran across the top of a marble China cabinet. “Dusty,” a man said with a groan. The sound of the blinds clattering together, vacuums roaring over the rugs, and laundry churning filled the long, empty halls. A woman dressed like a wannabe Martha Stewart emerged from the bedroom. “Oh, it is Easter,… Continue reading

Sherry Hills Apartment Homes

I turned left at a busy intersection. Cars with tinted windows flew by from every direction, pumping vehicular exhaust into the outdoor air. Publix. Costco. Starbucks. McDonald’s. CVS. Target. One after the other. Sporting familiar signs that have been forever branded into my memory. People frantically pulling in and backing out of parking spaces, policing… Continue reading

The Strength to Conquer Hate

To you I am erased. To you I have no face. But don’t I ever get a say? People take your tongue, and tie it to puppet strings. Pull you around in whichever ways fulfill them until they’re pleased. Make balloon animals out of the words you speak. Force feed you what you must mean. … Continue reading

Hungry Mary’s: The Saga Continues

To recap, the two girls from Season 1 of Hungry Mary’s had hit the road. The plan was to get out of Latin America so they could distance themselves from the illegal underground world they used to be a part of. This was a fresh start for them—one that did not involve criminal conduct. Everything was going smoothly with… Continue reading

In The Same Water, But Oceans Apart

It was a particularly cold and damp night for South Florida. The wind whirled around the palms, leaves blew across the street, and there was a slight trickle of rain that sprinkled on his face. Whose face? James Stanley: a man of 29 years of age. He had black hair, tan skin, and dark eyes… Continue reading

The Wide-Eyed Widow Part II: Call Me “Mommy”

The day finally came. Miss Evvula Winters was ready to dislodge the eye bandages that had been suctioned to her face all month long. You see, she had only recently made a full recovery from the earlier encounter with Blake’s son Gregory. As such, she was ready to step her foot out in public once… Continue reading

The Play Date Corral

Some women in this world were not supposed to be mothers. While their devotion to their children might fall short, their dedication to their vices was infallible. Lucille Laughlin, Lola Lovehandle, and Wanda Winkton were three such women. Lucille was lanky, and while thin, still had an irritating muffin-top that never seemed to flatten out.… Continue reading

Hungry Mary’s

Hungry Mary’s was one of many houses of prostitution packed into Vila Mimosa, a red-light district tucked into the mountainous outskirts of Rio De Janeiro. Unlike most of the brick-and-mortar stores servicing the region, Hungry Mary’s had the highest budget of them all. Its pristine and lavish facility has attracted some of the richest men in… Continue reading
