“Two things are constant in my life. The moon and meanness. Both have their time to shine or hide in the darkness and wait. I wrestle with meanness most every day. Like old dead George. Some days, it’s on me. Other days, it’s a reckoning that pops up. But the moon keeps me steady. Hesitation spells doom. I nearly waited too long this time. I thought Edna Love knew everything about living and dying. Secrets entice us. They exist everywhere. Some hang over us. Some we bury. Some are paybacks doled out piece by piece. But secrets work on us all.”
