I sit at a computer and drink cans of diet coke. Popcorn touches these salted lips. With frustrated fingers I can barely type to a yellow screen...a post seems like a distant dream; that oasis hidden by a desert storm. So I sit with blood shot eyes as an eeriness turns inside.
Thunder Road plays on the radio:
one last chance to make it real. It's late so soon, past 3am. Time to undress a cool bed and sleep long in this empty room.

Good stuff SC. I can relate to this. Excellent imagery.
Late nights, huh? I swear I'm the most productive then. Really nice SC, the language here is stunning.
To your square corner,I have come with a round peg..hope we match..
Love these poetic stories.
I so relate! I love the flow of this. And the last line is perfect.
I could feel the raspy wind, and see the weary dance..how close we all might be to that place.
