The jail cell talk without any cameras around to record make his last 51 minutes in the pen with a sketchy bunkmate a do or die conversation that may explain why he became homeless, why he wrote the love letters in the first place, and if both were random at all.
What kind of writer am I?
By Jeremy T. Ringfield
Kind. I don’t like to grip the words so loose that I can’t hang the ending in a noose. Then you ask if that’s kind? You can guess if you desire, whether it’s ice or it’s fire, but I tend to hold tight what you can deduce. So I knot it nicely dear. All you have to do is figure out what you hear. Better get in gear, because my sentences are dripped in temperamental artwork that I can describe as nothing but K.I.N.D.
Kind. Knot it nicely dear. I like it in enthralling where the talk is chopped as I sip a little time with a bad one… I got it better and denied it every time for her until I found a glad one. Then the pull comes from both ends, who wins? Listen. I implore you to listen her, I want somebody. I just don’t know that you’re that body.
So, kind. Knot it nicely dear. I love it in enamored when the walk is plopped as I slip a bigger time with a glad one… I got it when I met her and replied it every time until I lost my bad one. Then the pull comes from both ends, who wins? Listen. I implore you to listen her, I want somebody. I just don’t know that I’m your body. You’ll think you’ve got two, maybe even three things right, but I kindly love it when the walk is dropped as I fit a little question between whether it’s an “I do” or an “Oh fugg, I didn’t mean to”… Sigh. Such a sweet had one.
Kind? Knot it nicely dear reader. That’s kinder.

As I go to hand him his key and re-washable cup, I remind him that “the lobby coffee is free”, and he glances at my name tag.
I lazily connect my last sentence with the next, saying “Jec, for short”.
He pauses, then shakes his head and asks “What if I want to call you something different?”
I meet his eyes with a stare of my own, slow to respond, blink, and say “It will be okay Abram.” His face scrunches for a moment and his eyes look as though he is wondering straight through me. My glance falls deeper into the hole of an eye, and I see a marble in the night, the dark side of a full moon, which can be plucked right out of the sky to place a piece of the void heaven filled should I grab it and tuck it into my pocket.
The ascension falling as the walls collapse to drop a cloud in his ear, a long fiber weaves my wonder, wherefore out there did he discover?
And I conceived a thought of a single droplet, enough months from now, falling into a gravitationally absent drip time has lost, and him not.
Before I can tell if he eased his facial expression, he walks off keys in hand without another word.
“See, I told you. Killer” Bobby says flatly, and I just return to checking my emails.

ReplyDeleteLeave a comment or ask the author a question...I would like to ask a question Alex.
ReplyDeleteJeremy, what would you say your main character flaw is that you would go to such a heinous place such as Duke University? And did you own a Mercedes, BMW, Saab or Volvo that you parked in the student parking lot?
I liked both the book description, and the excerpt.
ReplyDeleteWhat inspires you to write?
