Patrick Fealey

    a heartbroken man dances into midnight on the gunwales of a stranger’s boat, sucking on a bottle of grain alcohol while sid vicious sings “my way.” a heartbroken man awakes in the bed of a strange woman. the floor is littered with condoms and wrappers. he recalls she was on the boat. a heartbroken man gets out of bed at 4 p.m. when his desire to die is surpassed by his desire to get the hell out of her house. a heartbroken man relents to dinner with the strange woman and she looks at him and says, “what are we?” the heartbroken man says: “irish.” the strange woman doesn’t like the answer. she now looks heartbroken. the heartbroken man eats his steak and salad while the heartbroken woman sits in silence. a heartbroken man sleeps alone at home and he dreams of the woman he once loved. he is with her in the back seat of a car. she has no head, but she is a live neck and body. a heartbroken man awakes in the morning to find his flannel shorts are wet with semen. a heartbroken man wonders about the dream and finally decides it was one hell of a steak.
