An envisioning. 1995 and summer inching in as the lilacs inch out in Uxbridge, Massachusetts.

Oh to be here.

Down in the library, looking for an unread magazine that isn’t too dog-eared. The Storrow Estate: lovely it is, as long as you are an older lady in need of assistance until you can return home. Well, some in need of more help than the others. The poker-playing ladies, all dressed in red dresses, purple turbans, and high heels that would have put a 1940s girl to shame, not looking to need much of anything besides another drink.

my new envisioning/short fiction piece with the rest at the link over on my Substack if you’d like to read it-
