" We were sipping coffee one morning. Mary asked, “Were we happier then?”
“Busier.” I pondered. “Lots more opportunities for culinary drainage".
I laughed and then I sat upright and then my head tilted and my ears grew more still and urgent to their purpose. Finally I said to myself,'Someone's put it down in words." Marriage. Kids. Kids leaving home. Bravo,Robert! It's both chilling and strange, and quite wonderful stuff.I love your wild inventiveness and the willingness with which you pursue it.
Enjoyed the piece, Robert. Great.
Jeeze, this is so not the Robert I know and love, but I kind of like this one - appealing in a strange, dangerous, weird, sexy way. Is there an echo in here? You, Sir, are a man of many faces - shape shifter?
To my friends who read this: thanks everyone, and for your comments and support I am so very grateful. This IS a weird one, and so thrilled that you liked this more experimental style.
That's awesome, Robert! Like it lots. I've not seen Housefire, looks cool!
Took some nerve, Robert. But it worked, paid off. You're just plain hot these days. Great stuff.
Jim you are right, Robert is smoking these days.......... Great story Robert!!!
You are on a roll Robert.
Congratulations on another wonderful piece!
Thanks, Kathy, James, Susan and Gloria! I appreciate it!
