Things were happening and Max needed a lead. Any lead would do.

Throwing a Hail Mary wasn't good enough.

It was time to throw the whole Rosary.

“Can’t you leave me alone? I don’t need this shit while I’m working.”

“Any cooperation goes a long way to making all this go away.” Max needed to make sure that Dennis was still on the hook.

“They have something going on somewhere around Saint John at the end of the month. They wanted me to go, but they were making me too nervous. “

“Why?”

“They hate each other. They just need me to drive a truck, and they wouldn’t tell me anything else. I gotta get back to work.”

Summer thunder on star filled nights. The banshee screams and the acrid smell that follows.

The sirens wail chasing cars they are ill equipped to catch.

I sleep happy knowing the #rubber is on the road & there is good #money selling tires.

Everyone asks why, but the listening never happens. So, I go to that place. The only place that no one goes and it's quiet

As quiet as it gets anyway

The endless debates between mutually #closed minds on subjects neither can understand

Time goes slowly but carries on, a singer once sang.

Then time stops. Everyone tries to breathe when the inconceivable happens & blood runs cold.

Max and the now sockless Fairweather slouched on the couch, half laughing at the emotionless Fred and his ‘we’re even’ expression. The rest of the party were trying to decide the best way to salvage the flaming disaster that was once Edwards beloved grill. The exhausted decision was to order the pizza from the usual place with the usual toppings. 
The ice seemed to be finally breaking when Peterson whistled, and called out. “Hey guys, who the hell did this?” On the empty draft board,  the first slot had been filled. A knife Max had not seen in two months, pinned a selection to the wall. He felt the hair on the back of his neck stand up and a chill ran down his spine. He remembered locking the backdoor.

It finally happened. The last free lunch, hugs and handshakes. No more shifts.

Walking out the door for the last time struggling with the desire to turn, extend a middle finger, & yell "F*** OFF ALL OF YOU!"

Instead take the #wheel & drive in no #particular direction.

The world has been crumbling as long as there has been the myth of civilization. Humans have never been civil.

Yet, we still care for each other everyday while the worst feels ready to fall on us.

Remain #sanguine my friends, we will get through it.

The hollow silence of the empty space. Forgotten names of Saints whose faces are shattered onto stained glass.

To stay for a moment, letting the anguish echo in the hollow space inside your mind until it escapes to find solace in the #temple.

We have an image of our parents. We know how we got here and maybe that ended with our youngest sibling.

Maybe it didn't.

“I was still bummed about the fight thing and then I found out you and mom were in my room. It’s like, next level…icky”
“Yeah, our bad, she likes the ottoman and there’s no place else in the house to put it.” 
Sylvie wondered if she could just go to the airport and stay there. Now Mom and Dad? She thought it had been just her and Blair. Does she have to save that for her kids, or can she throw it out of the window and burn it?
Finishing the beer, she knew that nothing was as it seems and everything around her was a distraction. Like makeup over Magic Marker, you might have to look real hard but it’s still there. 
Just one more day and four more beers to go.

For what felt like ages, there was a pattern. 430am: Wake up, be spasmodic, go out, want in, go out, want in, eat, go out, want in. Go to #sleep.

I thought i knew, I stated that, now he doesn't do that. Staring at me, knowing there are no rules

On an old stump, sipping coffee beside the swollen creek. The musty scent of fresh tilled earth. Dusty jeans, mud covered boots, & summer tanned arms never fade to winter white.
Shades of #brown waiting for spring green beneath blue sky

She had stood in front of the mirror practicing every night trying to get it right. She
e wanted to be as #eloquent as she could. Tomorrow would be the day.

Standing before the entire student body, she gave the best speech she could, proving to be the best choice.

Wallace had too much to think about, too much had happened while he was away.

Now he was caught with too much on his mind and too little on his backside.

Relieved, washed, and awake, Wallace could hear Sister Collette’s voice calling from the foot of the stairs. 

“Wallace, I have made something for you to eat when you are ready.”
As he Exited  the bathroom, Wallace began to respond, “I’ll be right…”

“Wallace Kewitt, be mindful of whose house you are in.

In his exhausted state Wallace forgot he slept commando that night, and quickly retreated to his room.

Fully dressed and apologetic Wallace found a giggling Sister Mary Ellen and stern faced Sister Collette in the kitchen with their coffee.

It was their forever home, halfway down the little street on the right, just past the mailboxes.
The kids were on their own now, the house too big to manage.
The #upper floor, unused. The gardens, #reduced to wildflowers and weeds.

Floovian behavior is considered an esoteric science discussed in backrooms & hallways.

Fred knows there are no rules unless he says so.

Fred expressed concern about Marissa’s erratic behaviour, trying every conceivable tactic to get her to calm down. He first rolled around on the freshly ironed black slacks so that the appropriate amount of non-removable hair had been applied before crawling into the bathroom sink, forcing her to brush her teeth in the kitchen, and making sure to be underfoot no matter where she tried to stand. Fred thought it was for her own good; evidently, she did not really understand cats. Those slacks didn’t work with that top anyway.

His hands had worked wood and metal. Repair, replace, or restore whatever came into his shop left having had more love than before it arrived.

His bench was his soul. The #mélange of tools, parts, small boxes, and the thing he hadn't figured out yet.

All the while chained to the earth that feeds you. #Birds fly no higher than to find the next meal following the food where it leads
