The Incident at Bushmaster Ranch
THE INCIDENT AT BUSHMASTER RANCH Some say it was the elevation, others say the clean air, all I know is they were among the best out there. People would come from all over the world to buy my Grandfather’s horses because they were the best. I remember spending summers as a young girl at my Grandfather’s ranch up in the mountains of Flagstaff Arizona. I remember his sprawling one hundred acre ranch like it was the back of my hand. All the nooks and crannies, all the hills, all the creeks that would vain through the land. I loved it there, and I loved my Grandfather.

Red Wood
Grass swept above my calves, and it was so thick that it seemed to be begging me to stay. I grazed my fingers across the worn wood and felt the red paint chip off against my skin every so often. Memories flashed across my vision, and the breath I didn’t realize I had been holding in finally fell from my lips. I pulled the large door, and let it swing harshly into itself with a loud thud. Though it was pitch black I could make out every detail succinctly. It all looked exactly the same as it did that night twenty years ago. It was almost like I had never left, and the mere thought of it made dread tear through me so deeply I felt as though I’d regressed back to childhood.

The Bath Road House
1968 Janet and I felt like prowlers as we drove through the upscale neighborhood. From the car, we admired what we could see of the homes. Each was set back from the main road, hiding behind thick coppices of trees and shrubbery. We glimpsed the slopes of their roofs through the clearings between the tree branches, and we whispered to each other as if the houses were sleeping giants that had eaten the people inside them.

The Pain Eater
“Guaranteed salvation of the mortal condition is a heavily sought after gift, a gift that does not come at a material price. If something so deeply and profoundly primal were to be erased from the body, what ethereal chain would fill that immediate void?”
