The lost, nearly dead adventurer 

I love the snow.

When I was little, I would play a morbid game were I would pretend that I was a traveler on an expedition in Antarctica or Alaska…. Or whatever.

I would go into the backyard and trudge through the pristine, dense, knee high snow. My steps were exaggerated as I faked an epic struggle. I would grunt and breath deeply and pretend that I could no longer go on.

All my supplies where gone and rest of my troupe… Dead. I had failed. It had been days since I’d had my last meal. Read the rest of this entry »

Urban Toilet

I’m trying  to find the entrance to the subway.  It’s cold and I’m not sure where to go.  I walk in the wrong direction and end up in the Lincoln Tunnel.  I turn around and walk to midtown where finally find the underground entrance to the train.  A C E.

It’s dark and crowded.  The homeless walk around like zombies and are dirtier and more decrepit than normal.  Their bony hands are outstretched to accept change.

Finally, I make it through the turnstiles but there aren’t any trains. Read the rest of this entry »

Bodies of Water

She flooded the seat
more puddle like than female
waves of fluid flesh

Thighs

He said that he is 56.  I wondered if he dyed his hair, because it was an unnatural shade of brown.

I was wearing a form fitting, short skirt and he noticed me.  He sat next to me on a filthy couch and leans in to say, “You have amazing thighs, and I’ve seen a lot of legs…” Read the rest of this entry »

Nightmare

He has an illustration in his closet. In the portrait, he is holding a women by the waist.  He gently rests his hand on her hip.  She is naked and he is fully clothed.  I wonder who she is because she is very attractive.

There are bloody hand prints on a blank billboard.  The dried blood has a creamy quality to it.

I ask him, “If you don’t feel the same way about me as you used to, tell me…”

“I don’t…”

I start crying.  I feel bad that I am blowing off a friend.  We were supposed to meet at the ice cream convention.  I knew they’d be mad and wouldn’t be understanding.

I have no idea where I am.  My shirt is so stretched out that my breasts are showing.  I pull up my shirt to try to cover myself.  I feel horrible, exposed.

“There’s a couple of things that I need from Duane Reade.”
He picked a bottle of Johnson and Johnson baby oil off the shelf.
“What’s that for?”
He smirked and cupped his hands around my ear.  I could feel his breath.  In a smooth, deep voice he whispered, “Your ass.”
