As told by Jake Johnstone:

” The prophet was of peace… That was what “THE MAN” said. This man’s beard was scraggly like that of ‘1656-old’!!! So grey! So white! 37 minutes in on this day in 2022 fictional tales abroad and the … Storm set on this evening of remembrance. Remembering … screaming … snoring! Laughter! Smoke rising off cooked pork … It was all so hideous to me!!! … Although the prophet said opposite of what my thoughts portrayed vividly … This is just a memory skewed … A white shirt worn with a peace-sign torn. Not sure how but it was ripped in his face was this peace sign … blue, red, black, and orange…So strange yet all I recall was this lasting two whole years everlastingly non-stop! … “

” A virus … but uh … a bird I called myself. Just that. In the form of the finger … yet to linger all I could yearn for was … peace. A retractable pen to a chest … A passion of this … Through this mess … I can’t see it or believe it but … I do recall growing up they called babies born after a certain year … “Millenials” … Well … a CoronaVirus is current … Wouldn’t advise it but … “corronials” … are more constant than seeing dirty covid masks in puddles … “

Day 1 of 46 Days of Short and Micro-Stories

As told by Jake Johnstone:

[includes rough draft picture below]

” The unfortunate times with Dave part four… Dave never met his demise to the vampires in Maryland as he succumbed to being one of the undead. Stories for miles felt like stories for years. Stories for fears felt like tears within emotional boars of unending joy with a ploy yet Dave wound up despising life and even more not liking suicide or snow or any tumultuous huge big well… anything nearly to make you sneeze… Oh, how Dave hated to sneeze or to leave anywhere where he lingered for ten minutes rest-ably for whatever calmed what grim-med him…”

“From an unfortunate soul named Dave blessed to be alive, but… surrounded by the undead…”

” I couldn’t fathom this around me. PathForth saved this part of Maryland… but that’s only what they lead you to believe. The truth… Well… The truth from a personal perspective… Someone directly near the environment but… did not drink the “kool-aid” [if you will]…

***“The Unfortunate Times With Dave Part Three”***

” The nails must be attended to. I told myself this for approximately 43 days. By the time there was a 44th day I found Clive Barker, in my bedroom playing with things and then his ear got cut off by my pocket knife. His name wasn’t really Clive or last name Barker. Just a joke to poke… So… I said… The car horn struck me with chapped lips and dead parents… A memory askewed like my vision at this point…”

Peace and y’all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

***“The Not-So-Intricate Placement of Scissors Stuck in Donut Holes”***

As told by Jake Johnstone:

” Lords are high on the day November 29th, 2081. Serzsville, Maryland. Fires covered the circumference of a football field times four non-stop for what seemed like 28 hours. A lesion of leeches was ordained in Harrison’s chest. The lest for the mess was unreal. It honestly was so shocking it all feels like a nightmare I can’t believe I lived. Given hardships like wolves raised by Mexican and Asian princess gypsies. Peculiarities beyond normalcies in the past, but this was just brash. Couldn’t picture it… Can’t understand… This had to have been planned…Aliens had to have been involved…”

As told by Jake Johnstone:

” Mary is I. After their horror of seeing Gerald’s 28 personalities… (… all psycho-driven-normalities mind you…) I just felt staring jolting pain. I just seen demons in my sleep… Black apparitions… shadow-like with no eyes… This happened in the summer of 2041. I actually just turned 41 also. Stopped my practice just 9 years prior and am still on a re-building climb… October 14th is when my nagging nerves to fear life took a strange strange turn… Also from Pemberbury, Maryland. Mary Potter. Alone. No pets. No husband. Petrified… Petrified… All until this very obscure peculiar orange and red with a hint of yellow ball of fire never lost its flame in all of these… 30 Days of Rain… downtown Pemberbury MD…”
