I Would Rather
the ultimatum
I would rather dream of forever
than to face reality
I would rather love you from afar
than to be disappointed with
what’s in front of me
I would rather doubt you’ve changed
and accept your stagnation
I would rather close the door
than to wait on nothing
I would rather my peace of mind

The Spring
The sun was high when Lance pulled off the road and into the dusty lot of the service station. The sign back at the hairpin--the first sign in a long time--said they just rolled into Hatter’s Creek, Population 63. It was small enough it didn’t appear on the handmap in Shelby’s lap, yet here it stood, the first backwater township on the fringes of the National Park. The plan was to gas up, restock the snack bag, and press on into the wilderness.
