Croon like a Coon
A country singer must face the reality of his
Country singer from Wyoming, Delaware looked at his wife with a granite stare. She didn’t show emotion, either.
“So you cheat me. We were an open relationship as long as we talked about and approved of the other person. You stepped outside of bounds,” Valencia Pease spoke with a cold tone.
“I’m….” Derron Laddy struggled to speak.
“Save it. I’m going to get your publishing and masters. That was in the agreement if you can remember.”
“I do.”
“Remember when you said that, too?” Valencia asked.
“I’m going to make all of this easier for you,” he said.
“Too late.”

Clinging to Childhood
The playground is empty, as it should be past sundown. There is a warm breeze, and I can see everything despite the late hour. What time is it, anyway? It could very well be past midnight. I can never keep track of time, especially in the summer. A prickly piece of popcorn hides like a stowaway in the left cup of my padded training bra. I stuffed the tissue in last minute— a decision I’m beginning to regret, based on the events that are unfolding rapidly before me. To my left, laying non-chalantly on his back, is my date for the evening. He is two years older, could probably grow facial hair if he wanted to, and drives a secondhand Honda. He may as well be a Man. I, on the other hand, feel like a fraud with my too-short short-shorts, sparkly lip gloss, and makeshift push-up bra. I keep my arms pinned to my sides as I feel the dreaded circles of sweat beginning to manifest on my brand new Abercrombie top. I cup my elbows with my hands and stare down at my hint of cleavage, praying that the tissue doesn’t pop out like a white flag surrendouring my lack of womanhood.
