Dear Jim
If I were to choose
Between sleeping rough
And waking in your absence,
I’d rather have the former
The Experience
You have each made it past kindergarten and first grade and are safe in second grade. I’m passing out some vouchers, if you come back within the next three weeks, you may bypass Sid, if you like, and start from here in the break room
Gaps
He wasn’t that far from her, literally.
But there was a wide divide between them.
Cannot be crossed.
Will never be crossed.
