I’m glad you liked it. I was an entertainer most of my life and this is one of my works I performed many times, sometimes for kids at the Austin Children’s Museum. Obviously, most of my pieces here are written for performance, but I have made audios for only a few of them. I will record others when I have the time and energy. Again, thanks — gal. If you wamt to hear that accent, try the Audio version here: https://starsrite.com/short-stories/the-tale-of-rabbit-jack-audio-version/
“Desert Wishes” is of the same type, but the audio seems to have disappeared.

You are a really good storyteller. I could not stop reading it once I started. Almost gave me a feeling of “Lean On Me”, the movie, and “The Wonder Years”, the TV show, combined. Enjoyed this.

My sister and I made a teepee of matches in the center of our living room and set it on fire. Nothing burned down, but the tile bubbled up. lol

I’ve honestly have only watched the first episode of Stranger Things. but your poem stands powerfully on its own. The imagery is so vivid and eerie, it feels like a story in itself.

In the fourth season there is a character that plays the song from Metallica. So epic!!!! I put the link below in case you’re curious. I haven’t been writing the past year. I’ve been busy trying new things so your comment means the world.
Thanks for stopping by:)

It’s been a while since I’ve sat down and written anything.

Fingers crossed I will write something this weekend.Thanks for the support:)

What! Of course you should’ve been made! All of my bad luck, you are my salvation!
You don’t write “dark” much. But obviously you can when it hits ya. The plethora of details within the write make it full, like a bag of candy when trick or treating. (That black cat I saw a few weeks ago was right outside my front door this evening!).
Haunting write, my Morticia,LOL. -

And you can’t take it back. I’m still your salvation but you have to take me shopping for girl stuff!
Thank you lover !!-

Hello FlatDaddy!
What a wonderful little story! I decided to read the text myself instead of listening to the recording. In the beginning it was a little confusing and hard to read, but after I while I developed a Texan accent! 😀 lol
