Much Ado About Chicken
He was gullible. He had ended up in the back of police vans so many times because his associates told him about places that were easy to steal from. They gave him instructions and guffawed loudly when he got caught. They often watched his failures and when he told the police about what had happened they just denied everything.

B. A. Durham’s False Memories blends dream and reality in a seamless mix. As his father, afflicted by Alzheimer’s, fades away, the narrator is haunted by a dream that may be a memory, returning to him insistently. The piece is full of wonderful detail (the father touching his lip where once there was a mustache, “but now he is clean-shaven—he has been for years” — and moving in revealing the complexities of a family’s life. A worthy winner which shows the power of dreams to influence us.
