Literature for the Aged

Literature for the Aged

The written word: immortal, ephemeral.

God is only standing there, ego eyes watering like a typhoon. Eye here, eye there, watch 'em join together. A woman wants to hold his hand but he won't let her. The unfortunate occasion of which we speak, begotten son of Pan, standard drift on nightmare Ert, doing some bizarre rendition of a Russian squat dance, extending his long legs and clicking his cowboy heels on the street.
A red-faced girl laughed as she watched him, beer bottle in one hand, a cigarette between her fingers.
Others did the Herky Jerky, catalepting a frantic mosh. That's how it started. The heat and motion had them warping like cardboard, feet planted solidly, firm bodies arched . . .
But I wasn't dancing tonight, things were too damn scary.
