Human no. 1

by Corey Lockaby

sliding off the bed
her face seems almost imperceptibly small now
she's crying, she's gonna go now

he just sits there
until he hears the door slam
quietly stands up
peers at the car pulling out

"did she really just do that?"
he grins at his reflected grimace on the shiny surface of the window.

(finally free)

I'd say you're off to a pretty damn good start.

I am wondering how this will unfold??? Nice.
