Have Some Tea with Me, I Have A
Story to Tell You, by Granny
Smith
Each
day we confront
machines possessing
absolute power over
us. They
perform services
with electronic
components and
artificial
intelligence.
We assume each
encounter will be
with an obedient
machine so that we
can
continue with the
balance of the day.
Then one day this
electromechanical
mass senses a human
in a careless, weak
moment of need.
The servant rebels
and the human has an
encounter with
artificial
intelligence.
Quickly the human
discovers the wrath
of a machine
scorned.
Recently I tried to
buy a plastic bottle
of Squirt.
License has been
taken, but the
battle was real.
Fortunately, I was
saved by a youth
born in the digital
generation. It
was a “Close
encounter of the
thirsty kind."
I never wanted a
dog, especially a
small dog, but somehow
Max found me five days
after the Loma Prieta
earthquake shook the
San Francisco Bay Area
on October 17, 1989.

The Dead Man's Smell, by
Steven H. Short
A story for
Valentine's Day.
The story takes
place in San Diego during 1974.
Rita works in sales for a
printed circuit company.
Parone is an ex-marine who is a
deputy. They meet because
her client has died before he
signed the dotted line.
Rita is in a difficult spot and
tries to finesse her way out.
Parone has seen too many fools
like the dead john in bungalow
7. He detests women like
Rita who strut when they show
their wares. They never
toil. They offer the tease of
sexual fantasy while luring a
weak fool filled with lust.
They take more than they give.
But like the battered bull in a
bull fighting ring, Parone
charges onward each time he sees
red, hoping that this time might
be different.
Lost Rebel Gold, by
Jim Colombo
“The Lost Rebel
Gold” is a story my grandpa told
me several times when I was a
child. Grandpa was a good
storyteller and each time he
told the story, more characters
and events took place. The
story is about stolen rifles
traded for stolen gold.
There is a story within the
story about the two drifters who
didn’t know that that had
counterfeit money to buy stolen
rifles. They hid out and
stumbled onto the lost gold.
They got caught, escaped a
Mexican jail, and their truck
ran out of gas close to the
Arizona border. Buzz found
them and had the standoff with
the Federale.
Forever Yours, by
Susannah Farrell
This is a fictional story about a young woman
that was abused by both her father and her boyfriend. In the story,
it seems like it didn't take her very long to realize what was happening to
her, but she that is because she was lucky enough to have had the help of
another battered woman, a doctor that sought out to help her and didn't let
up.

No Rest for the Wicked:
Introduction, by atdi_x
Summary:
The Vega family rules
the city of Los Angelos with
an iron fist.
The male matriarch of
the clan, Gabriel Vega, is
considered by many to be both
a tyrant and a saint.
His two children, Isis and
Virgos, rule alongside him as
his equals and his successors.
But, when their power is
threatened by a new clan in
town a game of murder, deceit,
and betrayal ensues as each
member of the Vega clan tries
desperately to hold onto their
prestigious power.
Here's a small, brief story
I wrote. I'd like some
feedback, and I was hoping you
guys could supply it. It's
very much a work-in-progress,
and I'm wondering if I should
change certain things. (Ex.
the day) Good or bad,
I'minterested to see what type
of tips/reactions I'll get.
A beautiful
love story dissolves into
difficult realities, and a
last-minute lunge to go back
turns sour. Romeo and Juliet
pales in comparison to this
modern tale.
A young man of rational
thought returns home for a
semester break only to find
that life is not as rational
as he was taught to believe at
school. His next stop: The
Twilight Zone.
“Nahiliolani”
is a fictional story.
Although, Nahiliolani
is a fictitious name there are
thousands of Nahiliolani’s, in
the real world. They have
similar names like, Rebecca,
Susan, Margaret, and Jean,
who are trapped in the
world of drugs. This story is
dedicated to all the
Nahiliolani’s who become
statistics and leave a life
time of suffering behind
them.

Reading
“Technicians of the Sacred” some years ago promoted poetry to an
important position in my intellectual life. When editors began to select
my work for their publications, I was convinced that I had read the right
book. I hope reading these poems will make you feel the same.
