Hot Flash Wine (50)


Henry waited hours for Eve to arrive, hope dissipating as the hours ticked slowly by. She had never been late before, maybe she was standing him up.


The evening wore on, his agitation increased until he threw the bottle; wine ran down the wall like blood.

Why is he throwing the wine? Did Eve stand him up or is something wrong?

She is missing. She ate at the diner without her tablecloth and got food poisoning and is too sick to show up.

Bwahahaha!

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.
