Rita

Saturday night, Rita’s red light burned out, you know the kind that blinks.

To replace it, the nearest Supper Wiggly was at least ten miles away; no time for that, but the rent money was due.

So she decided to go next door to the Toot’n’Tell It where they had a Big Red Box.

A Mothers Love

Thirty-Three years

My nerves are on edge.

My heart is tearing.

I’ll hold my head high

while she verbally
