The Drabble Writer

I used to write drabbles.

They were unhappy things, a product of life in a place where there is always the fear of an unexpected and violent death. 


When I was young we all feared annihilation in nuclear flames. As an adult, I knew that just looking at another motorists could incite road rage and a fatal shooting.


Drabbles were a release for my existential angst. 


Two years ago I retired and moved from the US to Spain.


Live is good here.


My muse has left me.


The sun is coming up. I think I'll go and get another beer.
