TZA-The Beginning-3
“Mr. Mitch” said Greg. “What do you mean ‘the end’?” Mitch realized he had paused. There were few things in his life that he remembered with absolute clarity. This was one of them, and it caught him off guard. He scratched his head as a stray breeze blew his hair away from his forehead, exposingContinue reading “TZA-The Beginning-3”
Tales from the Zombie Apocalypse
TZA the Beginning 1 The kids came bubbling up the short hill behind Mitch as he stood looking at the Wall of Remembrance. It was nothing more than a bunch of posts set in the ground on this grassy hill with planks of wood nailed across them. But it meant a lot to him, asContinue reading “Tales from the Zombie Apocalypse”
Aaron 3
When Aaron was eight years old, a voice came to him, and it said, “Remember.” Now that he was older and had a much better grip on language, he was able to ask, “Remember what?” And the voice said, “Remember.” Aaron, being the young and impetuous kid that he would be at that age, askedContinue reading “Aaron 3”
The Outing pt final
This went on all night, and never did the voice get any closer to him, or menace him in any way. It continued in its sweetly cajoling way, never getting angry, never getting irritated.

It’s waning glow made the woods seem so much darker, and him allContinue reading “The Outing pt 8”

One boy began to tremble. One girl began a slow freak out. Another boy gripped his flashlight tighter. Another girl cried “what is going on here?” They roused the other two couples, so intent on each other they didn’t notice what was going on. Once disturbed, they groused and griped, upset at being torn fromContinue reading “The Outing pt 4”
The Outing pt 3
One of the boys that went looking for their lost friend only noticed the missing girl because she was his date. The others swore that she was sitting right there, at the end of the log, when they heard the two returning. How she managed to slip by them without them noticing they couldn’t figure,Continue reading “The Outing pt 3”
The Outing pt 2
After a while the girl who was waiting for her date got concerned when he didn’t return. The liquid courage, all three sips of it, had her ready to go, and his untimely departure was doing nothing for her libido. She called out to him several times, and got no response each time. This frustratedContinue reading “The Outing pt 2”
I kiss her cheek…
.., and pull back. My thumb caresses her cheek now, slowly, softly. I put my cheek to hers, as my fingers find her ear lobe, stroking it, until my fingertips gently move down her neck. I feel her shiver as her hand covers mine. I feel the tears forming, unbidden, but knowing they would makeContinue reading “I kiss her cheek…”
