Her male companion, looking perturbed but resigned, sighs.

“I am not a slut.” Tears well. Sobs try to escape. She grips them tight with her hard mouth.

“I was using. Using the bathroom. I was peeing and he. He just walked in. He was after something. I’m not giving him shit. I was peeing. I am not. I am not a slut.”

She placed the cigarette in her mouth, then took it back out. “I. Am. Not. A. Slut.”

Wordlessly, the man grabbed her wrist and led her towards a car. She takes back her wrist, puts away the cigarette, and gets in the passenger side.

“I am not ...

A dream, 7/21

When I put on my face this morning, I accidentally gave myself a second pair of eyebrows. I went to the park, went to work, went home, and no one mentioned a thing.
