âYou walk into a room with crimson walls and red lights. Rose petals are strewn on the perfectly fitted bed. A woman lays on the fluffed pillows, facedown, blood trickling down her flesh-â
âOkay, Iâm gonna stop you there,â Jerry said to the director from behind his desk.
The director, slicking back the strands of black hair that have fallen out of place, sat back in his folding chair. He was we...
If Only you knew
How much it hurt
When you kicked me
In the face
But also the heart
My heart throbs
From the betrayal
My face throbs
Mostly from the kick
But also some from the betrayal
Because you betrayed me to my face
then kicked it
I donât know what hurts worse
probably itâs my face
But also my emotional face
My eyes of love you blackened
My nose of joy is bleeding
My mole of sadness rip...
The clock strikes 6:00 and heâs talking away.
âWakey, wakey, Benny Boo!â
I roughly fling the covers off and stomp to the bottom drawer of my desk. I yank it open.
Starring up at me with a annoying smile is my head.
âThought you could drown me out in here, didnâtcha, Benny Boo?â My head says.
I donât respond.
âWell, pooh on you, Benny Boo! Ya canât get rid of me that easily!â
Heâs knows I ...
I remember I was in the shower when my wife said I had a porn addiction. I blew it off. It wasnât an addiction and I wasnât an addict.
Did I want to stop the behavior? Yes.
Could I? No. No matter how hard I tried. For years.

At the time, I believed that if I admitted I was addicted, it would mean that I was trapped by it. It would mean that I w...
The warp core was drained
The Hyperdrive was down
We were sitting ducks
As the enemy came back around
No dilithium and kyber crystals
It was a red alert emergency
It was all my fault because I
Overcompensated with lemon energy
Chewie growled at me
Worf made me bleed
âYour a nerfherderâ, said Leia
Mr. Spock said, âIndeed.â
âMy God, man,â said Bones
âWhatever possessed you??â
I said, âDonât you m...
I open my eyes.
Outside the car, rain falls in heavy sheets. I can tell I wasnât out long, because we seem to be driving through the same stretch of baron highway. Same passing power line poles, same drenched fields.
âItâs no use,â I say and scoot myself upright in the passenger seat. Rubbing against the leather makes that sound that Jim always giggles at. It reminds him of farts.
âHun, weâve ...
8:42pm , Tuesday
When everyone has gone to bed, I do a bad thing. As far as my wife is concerned, itâs an unspeakable act. But itâs an act that pours out of me like bubbling lava, pent up for years, now overflowing.
After tonightâs bedtime gauntlet, the kids are finally asleep. The wife has crashed. Iâm sweeping the kitchen floors. I reach the broom under the kitchen table, itâs black brushes ...
Leon never wanted to take this case in the first place and he never felt more sure that it had been a mistake than at this moment with the pistol pushed into the back of his head.
The affair, the dead husband, the desparate wife, and the dameâs mad scheme to cover it up all swirled around Leonâs memories, like it was the only memories he ever had.
Leon was about to learn the hard lesson: never g...
