Pigs will eat anything. Everything.
No one thought twice when she went to visit her daddy for an extended period of time, on his farm in Virginia. No one blamed her for leaving the animal she married, that we, not so lovingly called, Dick.
Days earlier he laughed, screaming obscenities as he stormed out of the front door. She sat there in the darkness, crying in a pool of blood and shame, on the floor where he left her.
And then, she got up.

Ghost
Ghost The tattoo parlour ghost was rarely seen but people often felt its presence. Some customers claimed to have felt a cool breeze brush against their skin, sending soothing shivers down their spines. They said it lingered with them like a gentle hug that wouldn’t go until they left the building when a soft wind would carry it away from them. The non-believers attributed this to wishful thinking, but those who believed would gaze around the corners of the shop when a strange noise echoed through the space.

The Longest Language Journey Back
When you have a godawful experience for years (perhaps French lessons) and need to write about it as part of the healing process and already you feel parts of your cognitive machinery trying to “clean it up” (guess it’s French lessons) for public viewing by default since it’s likely to make some toes curl up (sorry, but definitively French lessons.)
