Having decided to FLING some steaks on to BROIL, Diana knew she shouldn’t dwell on how late Darren was. It would only further strain their relationship. But really, she was at the LIMIT of her patience. If he didn’t walk through the door soon, she wasn’t sure she could keep her comments to a simple “hi, honey.” Knowing that he would try to placate her only made her more LIVID.

Grandmothers shouldn’t
let teens wander in Las Vegas

There was no one
to VOUCH for us.
We tried to WEAVE
a compelling narrative
of the long journey across
acres of hot blacktop
only to find chain link.
What seemed a shortcut
was most decidedly not.
Arriving hot, exhausted
and somewhat panicked.
I demanded to be heard.
No avail. Vida would not yield.
Remained LIVID all afternoon.
