A Need
by
Daniel Gallik
“Nothing will ache in my world.”
Jessie was looking at the massive ice cycles
hanging from her roof. A two story duplex.
They were touching the snow
on the ground. Jessie had gotten fired.
Her boss, “something about
the poor economy, the business cycles,
my boss and his moods.”
Jessie was taking a walk. Kent, OH
was looking gray and grim.
Mike had left last week. Something like,
“I have other territories to conquer.”
Her mom was still an asshole. Her dad
was still dead. “I think your
Dad just wore out. Don’t worry honey.”
Then, Jess saw this guy wearing
an Ipod, on Water St. singing out loud,
“Your love is all you breathe!”
