195: I'm No Lesbian
I am not a lesbian, she thought. She knew she wasn't. She insisted to herself she wasn't. It was an honest denial, even though she worshipped and admired women--as a species unto themselves. She was proud to be one. Exalted.

193 Etched in Stone
In a forgotten land, an exquisite palatial colonnade rises from a granite stylobate--foundation supporting its marbled columns. A lofty horizontal mezzanine, contiguous lintel, perches well above the heights of even great men--a circle of architrave, frieze, and ouroboric cornice--that loops for the inquisitive, orbiting eyes that follow it.

The Pritchard Diaries
In the middle of a barren, dirt field surrounded by dying weeds sits an old, wooden church. It had a name once but it's been long since forgotten. The sign blew away during the great dust storms of ’38, and no one saw fit to replace it. Nowadays people around town just refer to it as God’s House. Its exterior is as dry and weathered as the surrounding flatlands. No cross hangs over the battered front door. No stained glass, or glass of any kind for that matter, glistens in its slender windows. They are heavily shuttered against the Kansas winds. The bell tower has no spire. It is merely a squat chimney perched ominously over the entrance. The bell within it is small and rusty and only rings when a twister comes knocking. Its sole occupant is only slightly younger than that church itself and he tends to it as well as any man of ninety-four years can manage. He is the Right Reverend Hyram Pinker and he is the oldest man in town.
