Buried in the Woods
When I was 16 and living in white trash Northern Florida, I had a best friend named Kevin who lived in a trailer with his single mom. it was buried in the woods, on her uncle’s 10 feet of property. We’d watch horror movies there, climb on the roof to smoke cigarettes, and raid the fridge for her beer.
I always imagined, what if the woods hosted extra-dimensional, Lovecraftian creatures?
With that in mind, I illustrated this for “Dr.Seuss is Dead” in my collection of short stories “Down Highways in the Dark..by Demons Driven’.
