Soft tune plays.

The door opens—Crazyland.

CRASH !!@??

Glass shatters.

Another Buckwheat scrambles through the window—fast, off-balance, already yellin’.

“C-I-L-L—MY LANDLO’!

CILL MY LANDLO’!”

“HE AIN’T HOME! AIN’T GOT THE KEY!

LIGHTS ON—NOBODY HOME!

AIN’T NOBODY HOME!”

“JUMP THROUGH HIS WINDOW—BREAK HIS NECK—

NO REASON—WHAT THE HECK!”

A beat.

He nods.

Then—gone again, climbing right back out.

CRASH !!@??!!

Glass still in the frame.

Back again—halfway through the window.

“Bus come yet?”

Excerpt (SEO preview):

A chaotic loop in Crazyland—glass shatters, voices echo, and nothing quite makes sense.

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
