An envisioning. 1971 and mid-February at four thirty in the afternoon at the Chilton Arms apartment.

Oh to be here.

The sun still out, at least for a little while. Running across the room to the telephone only to find a magazine salesman who deserves to be hung up on. Everything outside turned indigo blue, and the lighthouse on the horizon starting to blink.

My new short fiction piece. The rest is at the link below if you’d like to read it. The image is late 1960s wallpaper.
