Country Bumpkin Returns to the Big Apple

  Country Bumpkin Returns to The Big Apple by Dave Wright “Listen up, everyone!” The greeting came from a bald man with crazy eyes. He stepped into the subway at 34 th just before the doors closed behind him. I didn’t see a gun, but I imagined he had one in the pocket of his soiled khakis. What the heck? Will I be the victim of another mass shooting? The man grabbed the bar above his head as the train lurched forward. He cast a piercing stare over the coach. “I could use some change,” he shouted. “Anybody have some change?” Then he strode through the car daring anyone to meet his accusing eyes. I focused my gaze on a stray gum wrapper on the floor of the train. A few minutes earlier when we had boarded the southbound at 42 nd and Broadway, a young woman with wild, dark hair made a less intimidating plea: “Can anyone spare some loose change?

Refuge in Dickens

Refuge in Dickens by Dave Wright A cool sun hung low in the March sky. It attempted, unsuccessfully, to warm Tom Blankley as he trudged home from the Twisted Taco , his place of dull and uninspiring employment for the past three years. Tom kicked a stone off the sidewalk. He wanted to become a writer, but he was stuck spending hours in a restaurant that smelled of beans and hot sauce. Maybe someday, he could afford a place of his own. He imagined a leisurely life of waking up late, sitting down at a solid-oak desk, cranking out a few pages of mesmerizing prose, and counting his royalties each night before bed. But for now, he was reasonably content. The apartment he shared with Camille was a little over a mile away. Camille was a redhead—an unusual departure from Tom’s standard fare of blondes and brunettes. He appreciated her caring attitude, but it came with a fiery disposition. Tom anticipated arriving home to the apartment’s tinkling heat register and Camille’s warm embrace.
