Weekly Contest #330
Little did I know that this would be my last Halloween at 13 yrs old. It was 1975, in The Neighborhood there was a hayride driven by a yellow toothed former Carny that would slowly circle the mile long ring of the Cul-de-Sac that was stacked with hundreds of condominiums and apartments.

The Mouth in My Ear By Antonino Giannetto “We’re over Helen! Got it? We’re over! I want you out of my life. This has gone on far too long. You are too much. I can’t take it. I’m quitting my job at Amazon.” “You better think twice. I'm begging you, don’t do it. I will track you down. You can’t leave me!” She pleaded. “I’m leaving you” he said, putting his foot down. “No stop. No don’t. I need to breathe. Stop, you will kill me if you leave me.” She was in full blown anxiety mode. They both worked at the Amazon distribution center and caught e...
