Ribbed

July 31, 2023July 31, 2023 Angela Townsend

THIS IS GOING KIND OF FAST

July 31, 2023July 31, 2023 Angel Rosen

On our fifth day of texting, you mention a wedding in which I am your bride. In the middle of the night, something falls from the ceiling and hits me in the face. It’s a party favor that says MRS.&MRS. I put it in a drawer with all the other Read more

4/14/20

June 5, 2023June 5, 2023 Elisabeth Horan

I dictate a message to you on fb – explaining how much I still love you, and that I never meant to hurt you. I do another one, to another lover…. very similar, but different. Mute/I am a wrecking ball. Unmute/fight with the husband: you were behind the barn smoking… Read more
