My very short story “Cowboy” is available in the first issue of Shifties, a new literary magazine by and for the service well.
Astute viewers may recall when Ian read an early version of the story in Big Bear:
Thought:
“If I haven’t heard a word in ten years, assume you’re dead
Or guest of the Feds
Or cultivated a better class of friends
Not mad, tip the hat, fingers don’t touch the brim
Lid don’t touch my naps
Andy Capp, go ’head, pencil him in
Last one standin’, what he scream in the wind
At the end, at-at the end”
