From the Diary


At the beach yesterday I watched a fat man fishing. He was reeling them in. After a while he sat down and ate his lunch, but you could tell he was still hungry. Suddenly, down by the water, a candy bar. Still in its wrapper. He tears into it. Then staggers a little as the hook rips through his cheek. A strangled sound, and he’s gone. I look around, but no one else seemed to notice.
