wrong, raveling and unraveling, from missing woodchucks
to train-struck ferrets, from Bonnie and Clyde
to Charlie Brown (a notorious fatalist and depressive),
from meteorites to bear attacks to gunplay in the bait
shop. And so on to flash fiction worlds of talking
crows, percolating trees, Che Guevara’s omelets, and
Ingrid Bergman’s sex life. These stories are light and
yet succulent like a Cornish hen, whatever that means.
How does an amphibian know the moment it’s OK
to unfold the lungs? Wait. These stories are small but
so is a hydrogen atom. Open these pages, split them
apart, and BOOM. There you go. Enjoy.]]> 3020245 4.50 16 5 2009 5 0 false Tue Oct 06 15:33:43 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 15:53:29 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 06 15:33:43 -0700 2009
