Tribulation

Was going home. Long day. Car in the shop. Got into a fender bender. Jackass in an SUV changed lanes, clipped me. Tore most of my bumper off. I didn’t have insurance. He didn’t stop.

Walking, four in the morning, cold as fuck, out of cigarettes. Bad mood. Walking. Sweating under my jacket, but my lips and chin were numb. Foul mood. Assessing my entire life. Examining all the major decisions. Is this where I went wrong? Here? Could have studied a little harder in high school, I guess.

Didn’t see it coming.

Something tore out of the blackness. Glimpse, corner of my eye. Jagged yellow teeth, flat white eyes, eight or nine legs. Scuttling along the wall towards me. Drooling. Ropes of thick white fluid from its jaws.

Singing. Sounded like a little girl singing in Latin.
