Comin’ Home

Black And White Photography, Emilio, Photography

It’s been a year abouts since I been gone. Couldn’t much stand bein’ alone after Martha left. The house is all I got now. It don’t look like much but with a little time I could get it proper again. If I wanted. She promised she’d never leave, but some promises can’t be kept. I know that. And it shouldn’t have been a great surprise, what with the nearest doctor a couple hours away. They’re restin’ now, momma and child. Just waitin’ for when I come join them. Martha and the little one. Name would have been Jamie. Like mine.

      Than you, Jane. Years ago, I used to belong to a group that would post a photo and you had to come up with a story of no more than 100 words. I am reviving that challenge for myself with this image.

      I did write a book once. I love Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, and James M. Cain. So I wrote a hard-boiled detective novel but never did anything with it. Now, out of the blue, I seem to be interested in the west and find myself gravitating more and more towards books and movies and artwork influenced by it.

      Thanks, Thom. Joe let’s me contribute here every once in awhile. And I’ve been kicking around the idea of starting a blog again. If I do, I’ll let you know.
