LARISSA RYAN: Stopped

Henry was sitting in the park, his wife and son beckoning him to join them.

He felt peace, but he was in pain.

He stood; stepped; stopped, struck by a force so great he felt he had no breath.

Then, “He’s back!” And the beeping on the cardiac machine resumed.


Larissa occassionally makes time to write down the meandering thoughts in her over-critical mind. She also wrote A Good Place.

DAVE EVES: The Last Bite

A man walked up to me in the park today and asked, “Are you eating that?”

I was confused. I wasn’t eating anything. I turned to him and said, “No.”

He promptly took a large bite out of my upper thigh and walked away.

I wish I had said “Yes.”
