FLY A HELICOPTER? SURE, WHY NOT. Leo had done plenty of crazier things that week. The sun was going down as they flew north over the Richmond Bridge, and Leo couldn't believe the day had gone so quickly. Once again, nothing like ADHD and a good fight to the death to make time fly.

During the crash and burn, I began to burn from cranial crown to flat sole, for meaning and understanding. Every concept, psychological perceptions with hardened pathways, everything that registered as inherited from the communal was starting to dissolve into meaninglessness. The foundational tenets, the pre-established belief systems, instilled sustenance systems tended by both family and extended communal began to dissolve, first as trivial, and then as untenable to my being without validation from me.

When People Ask
How he's doing now, I have
no idea what to say except for,
"Better." I don't know if that's
true, or what goes on in a place
like Aspen Springs, not that any-
one knows he's there, thank God.
He has dropped off most people's
radar, although that's kind of odd.

turn, Conner was top rung on our
social ladder. But with his crash
and burn no longer news of the day,
all but a gossipy few have quit
trying to fill in the blanks.

for some idiotic reason still
loves him and keeps asking about
him, despite the horrible way he
dumped her. Kendra may be pretty,
but she's not especially bright. — Ellen Hopkins

Together, they see further, and they see more clearly. — Julian Barnes

I'm passing the bar
Where you first got in my car
I'm not ashamed to admit
That it's you I won't forget
I saved your cigarettes and
Bad habits I regret
But the hours flew by like clouds
Whenever I had you around
Parachute lover
Take me away
From the plane that went crashing
And the earth that's in flames
Saving you is saving me
High above the redwood trees
But down below I see shadows
And parachute debris
We're drifting like children
Along for the ride
Each time we find love
Another parachute arrives
Our madness will burn
As bright as the sun
And I'll keep finding lovers
But you were the one — Crystal Woods
