The Unlived Life
We find a place at the hospital to park; the cop pulls in right beside us. I look at my good hand and it’s shaking like a leaf in a tornado. I don’t want to be here. I just want to be by myself. I look at mom with a nervous grimace. She looks at my shaking hand.

Attainable Resolutions
The year 2021 is almost over, which means we are a year older, a year wiser. Are we ready to step into 2022? There are so many of us that are scared to see what the next year will hold, and I, for one, am tired of feeling anxious. I just want to let it happen. Let whatever comes come. My outlook on this upcoming year is that old song "what will be will be". Que Sera, Sera. I know that next year will not be what this year was for me. I refuse to let it. Let the New Year's Resolutions roll!

Keen Senses
With my eyes closed, I inhale through my nose. I smell something bitter. Something that makes my mouth water. Metallic in my mouth and delectable. I smell and taste blood. The body must be close. I keep my eyes closed, afraid to open them and face the world around me. I hate this part of my job. Having to break the news to the families that are holding out for good news. This body has been lifeless for almost a week. The blood smells fresh but cold.
