Lost

her eighth husband

Her eyes open with laze. Opening them exposed her to vivid colors but it must have been twilight. The lights were dim but the flowers and trees and all the plant life was glowing. The exotic fluorescence clued her in that something was wrong. She shouldn’t have been here - she shouldn’t have been anyway. Her plane had crashed. But here she was. And she was alone. Now sitting up she could fully loo...

“Don’t kill the vibe, Graham.”


She looked at me standing just a few feet away. As she had been getting closer and closer, I’d been steering the conversation further and further than how it was meant to go.

When I was small

About six old

I started to rifle

How I had no real home


I was lost

Told I was leaving the city

For a smaller town and a bigger house


I loved looking for a new house

The whole process

A new realtor friend

The tours and fresh paint scent


But I was afraid of only one thing

A question


What’s your hometown?


Technically I lived in the city

But a year from now I will be growin...
