A surrealistic, character prose poem A View From the Loft, Minneapolis, MN; on-line publication “Beginning to End,” Le Poème finalist, April-May 2003 Beginning to End It was when she began not remembering what was and what was not. There were the bizarre dreams, bodies falling out of chimneys, horses telling her fortune, her work pod climbing Everest. Those were okay; she knew they were dreams. But then she dreamt conversations with friends and family, ordinary conversations about everyday things. She would remember them, but not remember if they happened. Then she wasn't sure if what happened really happened; so she began to live in a sort of fugue state, not quite knowing if she were really there or really herself; and it all began to be both dream and real and she decided, finally, it didn't matter anymore. After she dreamt she died in her sleep, there was no reason to get up.

Dark humor FMAM Futures Mysterious Anthology Magazine, Minneapolis, MN “A Sunday Drive with Alfred,” Summer 2004 A Sunday Drive with Alfred They say the best place to hide a body is in plain sight, like the wide wooded median of a rural freeway, the steeper, the better. Less likely that meanderers will visit, and adopt-a-highway litter gatherers won’t scale a difficult slope for garbage they can’t see. Scouting out the workmanship quality of the litter patrol might prove prudent. Identify a lazy group and join in, find out where they never look, or identify an orphaned by-way and adopt it yourself. Some suggest blanketing with autumn leaves. A quick winter snowfall buries worries till spring. Others contend cold preserves far too well, while late spring’s quick green cover is followed quite conveniently by a season of heated decay. I think you should test theories with a pot roast or turkey. Shall we take the next exit?
