A Beloved Mom (Chapter 2)

Mom heard the announcements on TV, and Jill heard her say, "Oh shit, not again," and pour herself a drink. Jill walked in and sat down next to her. "That's a bummer, Mom." Jill snuggled up. "But I love you just the same." Mom brightened a little. Neither my sister or I said such things very often.

A Beloved Mom

"What'ya reading? said my sister.

"The Flowers of Evil,"

"Your Lit 202, I suppose. Read me a little"

"Not exactly assigned, however." I read:

Close swarming, like a million writhing worms,
A demon nation riots in our brains.

Birthday Party


******This happened during a party with one of my acquaintances. I came at the party bringing a bottle of white wine as a gift to the Birthday celebrant. The occasion was not a big party at all. It was just some sort of a get together between the celebrant and his friends. I was there 'coz I need to accompany my close friend. It was like attending the party of a friend of a friend. You get it? Well, the food was great, the music was cool and the people... (my goodness!) were goodlooking! Most of them were commercial models and have their pictures taken for magazines. My friend was a model kase. Anyways, my eye was particularly struck with this guy. His name is Pancho. I really like guys who are chinito, fair skinned, tall and well-built... (everywhere!)
