I took my date to a drive in movie. It was one of the last around. It was a scary movie about a tree that comes to life and wages war on humanity for our global deforestation. The movie ended and I put my arm around her. We were about to make out when a tree fell on my car. “Dang it, she’s a classic,” I shouted. Then we heard the tree growl, and neither of us moved for the rest of the night. When we did get up for help, the tree rolled over us. The war has started.

Detective McGee
I was working the beat, listening to the street. I found clues, the blues were playing, moving my feet. If I found out who did this, they were dead meat. I tracked down a suspect based on witness descriptions, it was neat. He demanded a lawyer and got a law firm, a whole fleet. “It was a doppelgänger, I swear,” he said without a care. I knew I trapped him in my snare. I interrogated him in the dark using only a flare. “We found your fingerprints,” I said and stared. We put him away, he yelled and blared.

A Love Forboding
The chipped stone slope caused unbearable footing. I slid, skirting on my heels. I cast my shield, relinquishing my guard to stay upright. Left with my double-edge and a prayer to the maker, I skated toward my objective. The earthly stubble gave way to solid ground. I found myself restored, a trail of dust in my wake.
