Hawkins Creek

Did I ever tell you?One cracking cold night I stuffed my clothes into my old Honda, grabbed my violin and laid it on top of the pile. Then I hid the guns, slid them behind the rocking chair and shoved them under the bed. Not very clever hiding places, but, all things considered, I hadn't much time to think about it. Of course, he knew it right away, said: "Okay! So where are the guns?" And then he said, "I love you."Of course, he was right. But, never mind that. I'm seeing life backwards right now, and if you could see life backwards, like through the rear-view mirror of a car, then you probably wouldn't be so inclined to mess it up.So I...I just edged to the door, stumbled down the icy steps and raced to my car. It turned over twice and I floored it, fishtailing up the drive, creaking over packed snow, never slowing down, and drove through the red garden gates at Core Hollow one more time....one last time.No, I guess I never told you....about that.
