Five Tiny Stories

1. DIY God’s acceptance: just add milk. And 1/4 of an egg. And a worn shoe sole. And some tears from your bitterest aunt…

2. For sale: bowl of ramen, never worn.

3. She walked into the bar and went up to the handsomest man. “Now aren’t you a tall glass of juice,” she said.

4. “Hot diggity dog, this milk is spicy! Makes my mouth itch.” “That’s not milk, Andy! That’s not milk!”

5. Where did she go? Where did my sweet woman with the buttermilk cheeks go? Virginia, you’ve been dreaming. You’ve dreamed a whole life and now it’s the size of the palm of your hand. Shake it off, Virginia. Shake it right off. You’re a prosecutor in the big city, Virginia.
