“Into the Memory Hole”
I. The weeds need pulling—for the sake of the crop. The little two-by-five foot plot at the edge of yard, in the only section that gets any dependable light, is overrun after another week of neglect. Grasping handfuls of the unwanted shoots I wonder the purpose of weeds, if they are knowingly belligerent,…

(the seventh chapter of Shell Games) The new vagabond’s mind rippled outward like a vast, quickly growing web of consciousness catching flies of transcendence, as she flitted in the direction of Albany.

Here, along the placid…
A Final Charge?
(the second chapter of Shell Games) A Final Charge? Glass Connors was standing mere feet from Bonnie Prince Charlie on the last battlefield of the Jacobite Scots the moment the earth collapsed upon them all, at Culloden, on April 16, 1746.
