Sample text
Lady J liked material things. She gravitated to people with money, and I was the one she had chosen to cling to from the first day she saw me, about a week earlier. I knew her age, knew she was jailbait, but went for it anyway. Upon Josie’s arrival, Lady J immediately got off my lap and began to walk away. I remained sitting on the park bench and watched Josie come toward me. All the folks standing even remotely near me immediately distanced themselves. They could see that I was in some deep shit, and they didn’t want to be in the way if Josie pulled a gun and started shooting.
I bagged the heroin, gave it to Spanky, and secluded myself in the safety of my drugged-up little world with Lady J for the rest of the night. I hated Spanky passionately, but it was convenient for me to act otherwise. I’m certain that, deep down, Spanky hated me with the same passion, but it was convenient for him to have me around. I managed my hatred for Spanky by knowing that I was fucking his wife. That made it all better. I knew, however, that my peace of mind, based on this betrayal, would one day come to an end.
Lady J, understandably, had already left the scene. I drove around the park smoking a joint, then headed back to Spanky’s place. I was still pretty angry when I walked into my apartment. I lit up another joint and downed a beer. I was opening a second beer when Imelda walked into the room. “My sister can sure be a bitch sometimes,” she said. I walked over to Imelda and kissed her hard. She responded in the same manner. Within seconds we were half naked, having sex on the kitchen table. Our sex was violent, more violent than it had ever been.
