Snippet

For Wes

It’s been 25 years since I saw you play. The rhythm of the music shook the audience to our bones. For a couple of hours, we were all friends.

I dreamed about you last night. I was backstage staring at your tattoo of yourself on your arm. I can’t remember if you have tattoos, but if you do, I’m certain you don’t have one of yourself. One of the reasons I had it so bad for you is because you don’t have a big ego.

I spent the rest of the dream unable to find a way into the show.

Yes, my desk is in a storage area. Technically, it sits between my sleep area and storage. My bedroom is long and about the size of a studio apartment. To put it kindly, the guy who owned the house previously made some very unconventional remodeling choices. If I look to my left, I'm looking at the remnants of what used to be a wall dividing two rooms. I get the feeling a lot of beer and happy herb were involved in his creative architectural decisions.

About the Author

Ornery Owl is a wise old bird who seeks the truth behind the lies. She uses her observations to heal the wounded soul. In essence, she is the spirit of an odd little bird whose wings were clipped at a young age. She is at once a whimsical manifestation of poetic expression and a fierce protector of those targeted for derision by an angry and unsympathetic world. Depending on how you perceive her, she can be either a goddamned delight or your worst nightmare.
