LOVE & DEATH IN KEY WEST
The boy cursed his pain, cursed me. I stopped
walking. I was blowing like a horse and sweating.
"I don't feel good," he said.
It was tempting to slip my aching shoulder
out from under his arm. His head was lolling.
His face was turned toward me, pimpled by
insect bites, eyes closed. I didn't think we
were going to make it to the car.
We crossed the footbridge, and I heard a boat
nearby in the mangrove. The motor was throttled
down, bubbling like a big soup pot.
We were out of time.

shotgun-toting chef, she's not even sure
of her friends in a town that's never been scruffier,
or more dangerous.
