Eucalipstic
I made lipstick of fragrant eucalyptus oil, it smelled so very heavenly, like a breath of fresh air for hungry lips. Constantly I enjoyed the fragrant minty smell, dabbed it on my nose, shmoozed it on my pillow to help me with a flowery sleep. Yet never once did I try it on any human lips.

'Okay, I've got the one contract in about three hours and there is the marking I should finish up with the college and what about the class that they promised me on Wednesdays and Fridays starting this month, like it is already November and they said that I had a good chance of getting at least one more private one online and maybe in class (they pay more, she said), oh god, why do I do this to myself when I have free time and there is nothing else to do but have the guitar around and play and check those scales again and it seems like it needs to be re-tuned but that can wake and what about the weather today I should probably go for another run and see if the pain in my right calf is gone for good - some ibuprofen would help; do I have any right now? - it would probably be a good idea to read something now and then have something ready for dinner before I went out the kitchen is a real mess and there isn't much in the cupboards right now...

It’s happened to everyone, but more so when we’re children: you’re about to go to a place where a bathroom is unavailable. Most of the time, that means you’re taking a long ride in the car. But sometimes it means you’ll be at the movies, a concert, a play, or even in church, knowing that you’ll have to step over people or interrupt a performance in order to leave the room for the bathroom.

Compensation
When Mr Starlin died, his widow decided to right the wrong of their 30 years of marriage. Rather than work, the old man preferred to read. From the time that he got out of bed until he put the light out before sleeping, his nose was in a book. He wore a huge moustache, which is wife trimmed. His eyes were permanently narrowed due to the continuous reading. He even had the same laugh lines as an infamous character who strutted the global stage several decades before. Meanwhile, Mrs Starlin took in clothes for alteration and went out charring three days a week. She grew vegetables in the back and front gardens of their terraced house in a cul-de-sac off the main road. The only time Mr Starlin rose from his armchair was to tap on the window and demand when lunch or tea was ready.

Ghost white pain. Top Story - November 2023.
I feel myself unable to stand without getting dizzy, a nauseas mixture of the worst sort of things set to my nostrils like an old feeling, a memory, burnt tire and gasoline, and then, fresh, salty air, and I find myself gagging, as the light burns my eyes.
