Laundry Day
There is blood leaking out of my washing machine. For the last eight months, my mother has had bullous pemphigoid. “Bullous” means blistering; “pemphigoid” means bubble-like. Together it means that her immune system is attacking her skin, causing outbreaks of blisters all over her body. There are dozens of them…
A Garden in the Desert
The summer desert prickled with the anticipation of rain. Inside the living room, the dog slept like a comma on the rug. Afternoon sun forced its way through the blinds, casting the dog in ribbons of hot white and shadows. She resembled a fox, feathered tail and paws twitching. Occasionally…
The Lizard Girl and the Alligator King
An alligator's stomach is acidic enough to dissolve a child's bones in 13 days. We stand in the side yard of the grand new house in Palm River. The house where cockroaches no longer skitter across the floor at night, where Cricket and I finally get our own rooms, and…

Marshmallows
Slogan and I tiptoed around the kitchen. I watched him filch some doughnuts for our trip; he wanted coffee but wanted to get going just as much. We could easily stop along the way. We were the first ones up. The house stood silent in the August dawn, the last…
Fitting In
As a boy, I longed to speak like the other boys I met when we moved to Georgia. My parents divorced when I was 4, and my earliest memories are blissful and dreamlike days and nights on my grandparents' farm in Iowa, early dawn hours of sweet air laced with…
Balance
They think Jimmy did it on purpose. Even now, every time one of them comes back to town for a wedding or a shower or a funeral, they get around to Jimmy eventually. They stop me in front of the Post Office or in the freezer aisle at the Independent…
