My stories

A Snarl in the Pocket

A Snarl in the Pocket. Jack Mead, a sentient man. A man on whom the street opens. Collides. Fishes around in his guts like rusty hooks. Swallowed a long time ago when they were sharp. My little uglies. He referred to them. His viscera, scraped, churning, leaking out.
