On The Brinks of Disfunction
Desperation had infiltrated my entire body and began to spread like a cancerous rust on an old '57 Chevy. I ruminated on the thought of opening the night stand drawer of which the contents would open the flood gates to a life of uncertainty, and perhaps the total loss of freedom.

A Routine Robbery
My fucking hands are sweating so badly. Please someone, please anyone, stop this. I gripped my pistol so hard I was afraid I would burst a vein. Paul told me not to worry about it. He’s done this before. He handed me a pair of old white apple headphones. He told me to put them in my ears and to drop the plug into the barrel of the gun. No one will suspect a thing if they think it’s a phone. People don’t pay attention, he said. I put my facemask on first, which no longer even looked out of place in this fucked up world.

After graduation, most of my class either went to college or joined the military. I got a job selling costume jewelry at a local flea market. Rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings were popular items. The owner of the booth was highly skilled at crafting these items. Many designs were copied from high end shops. These trinkets looked amazing but contained no valuable gems.
