I’ve sifted through possibilities. Every day, they become less probable. If wishes were dragons, I’ve nurtured leather-hard eggs. One by one, the eggs rot. My desperation grows. I fuss. I turn. I inspect.
Mythical creatures will play in my back yard. They will be freakish creatures of sweet mercy, if only wishes come true.
