Flat arid land.
The changing of seasons—the changing of the weather—everywhere but here. The sun high overhead. Shadows casted below. Stark vegetation. Bushes and shrubs. Dry, brown, reddish flaking dirt. Crumbling rock.
A hare took off.
Startled flight.
He watched it run.
Too big ears. Oversized back feet. Its back dotted—speckled—with black.
And—
“Dumbass!” He barked, when he saw him there, the hare running past his feet.
His left shoulder awkward. His skin tight, regrowth, scabbed over and dark and peeling and flaking. It itched like fucking hell. He shook his shoulders and neck. Stepped forward, closer. His hackles bristled.
“Throw yourself off any fucking cliffs lately?”
Fucking suicidal idiot.
There were plenty more around, if he wanted to fucking try again.
Unless he was the kind of fucking idiot that tried once and never again, and maybe he should’ve let him fall, that first time around, and spared him the fucking courage.
A bird could fucking fly, but anyone could fucking fall.
