I Fall Down Stairs
Mr. Zoom was buying the tree. I wandered to the back of the lot to goof around with my phone camera.

“Can I help you?”

“No, thanks. My husband is around here somewhere.”

“Oh. I’m hiding out back here, I work here, but I’m tired. I had to go to L.A. yesterday to fix a tree stand. I guess we sold one that leaked. I’m from back east. I got lost in L.A. I drove through skid row. A naked lady ran out in front of me and yelled at the cops. I’m so tired. I don’t even get to sleep in tomorrow.”

I ran away. I heard him say to my dust cloud “If you find him, give me a shout!”
