Dallas, Texas 1963
She scrambled from where she sat in the back seat climbing onto the trunk of that long luxurious Lincoln not to escape an assassin's assault as many assumed but to collect the shards of skull and bits of brain that had been blown back onto it as a bullet blasted a hole in his head his body lolling over to lie limply in her lap as her flowers fell to the floorboard sure...

Premium Member Dallas - November 1993
Flyin south to Dallas in a cold November rain with this continental climate weather there may be the same. There’s money from two countries janglin in my purse and stories from two families caught up in this verse. The airplane’s almost empty and I’m stretched across two seats tryin to connect things that are always out of reach. Haven’t yet had time to miss you and I really...
