"Son of a--" a rather grizzled looking man with silver hair exclaimed as he feverishly worked the steering wheel and throttle. He gritted his teeth and cursed again under his breath as his eyes shot from the mirror on the drivers side door to the rearview, a quick cursory glance at the gauges then back to the road. He downshifted hard and expertly worked the steering wheel and throttle as he made the big truck dance around a gooey dirt road corner. Mud splashes as the big tires empty a puddle from the rain earlier in the day.

Tomorrow Unseen
She pushes her face out of the moist dirt, her bright green eyes piercing thru the pools that turn into streams cutting swathes thru the mud on her face. Her dark auburn hair hangs down over her face, concealing the tears but not the blood at the corner of her mouth. She pushes herself up on a knee as she looks across at the bare and rather wide back of a man with his arms raised in triumph to a crowd of onlookers, some who cheer his name "DAX! DAX!" Others urge and plead for her to stand. As he celebrates he notices her on a knee with one fist and one boot on the ground and turns to face her. She wipes the tears on her face with the inside of the elbow of her tattered and dirty denim jacket, smearing the dirt.
