A digital misfit

The clouds obscuring the moon are blowing from the Arctic. Theres a chill in the air. Not enough for snow, yet, though. The flights in the distance climbing into the ceiling, up beyond the layer of cloud, to pure night beyond. They’re heading east, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, for a new tomorrow, sunrise over Ulan Bator. A new life in a far off land.

And me? I wonder what happened to my bright new future?

    And this from the man who, on being informed that contributions for the 1997 edition of Dark Times were being sought, replied:
    As for contributions to DT, I’m going to assume you mean literary not monetary, in which case I can’t help, I’m not very good at words.

    I always suspected it was just an excuse to get out of doing any work…
