My Engine Revs for You!
My Engine Revs for You
by:Quinton Tillery
Pinned against the wall,
I could feel the cold brick
against my naked warm pink skin,
A car's engine idled just out of my sight,
but I just ignored it,
I didn't care cause tonight was about letting go.
Strike one.
I was with a gentleman,
but, The gentlemen wasn't a gentleman at all,
and that's exactly what I was looking for.
As he moved his hands over my body and clawed at me like a sailor on shore leave,
I could hear the engine in the distance revving,
But I didn't bother to look beyond what's in front of me to see the car,
Strike two.
As the gentleman unsnapped my bra,
I moved my knickers down,
There was no sense in being coy at that moment,
even when I was blinded by the light of a car's headlights,
I was out of breathe and couldn't catch my fleeting thoughts,
So I could not make out the car.....at least not until it was too late.
Strike Three.
As the car rammed into the two of us,
The brick wall and I became one just for a moment in time,
and I knew for a split second in time what it's like to be hard as stone,
Much like my ex-husband who didn't know the meaning love,
only the pursuit and the chase...the game of cat and scared mouse...the cycle that never ends,
And always so dense and thick as brick never taking “no” or “it's over” for an answer.

Surprise Dinner
Surprise, It’s not Dinner!
By:Quinton Tillery
Kim knew
tonight was special, so she cooked her husband a nice dinner. She knew
he had been working lots of overtime in the last couple months so they
could afford nice things. Despite all the late night phone calls from
his boss and the lengthy business trips, she always stood by him and his
work. She knew that his paycheck did not come easy, and
she didn’t want to be one of those wives who made her husband choose
his career over her. She’d probably lose that battle, so Kim waited
patiently for her husband to get home from his recent trip and surprise
him with a nice homemade dinner.
When her husband got home, he
complements Kim on her appearance and told her she was sexy like he
always does. Then, she sits him down and gives him his plate of lemon
chicken with rice and summer squash. When Kim sat down, she did not take
a bite of her food, but instead she looks at him with a passionate gaze
as he gasps and holds his throat. Then, He goes limp as his face falls
flat into the plate of food.
Kim smiles at the scene. She gets up
from her place at the table and walks over to her husband’s coat, and
then she pulls out her husband’s cellphone to check the latest text
messages. She finds the one labeled “boss”. She reads the messages sent
between them since she found them two weeks ago. The new messages read…
------------------------------
Husband: I can’t wait for the weekend to have you in my arms…..
Boss: Great, I look forward to our “business trip”. I’ll send the wife
flowers in your name for your 10 anniversary. It should smooth things
over with her like always. Ttyl, sexy.
------------------------------
Kim opens a new message to respond. She types, “Wife had to be with
family due to emergency, let’s take advantage of her absence. Just come
in, Door will be unlocked. ” She only had to wait two minutes for a
response back.
------------------------------
Boss: Great! On my way then.
Husband: Wonderful…..I got a special surprise waiting for you!!!

A Bird of a Different Feather. By Quinton Tillery
I sat there perched on a branch looking down at the couple
as they setup for a picnic under the moonlight. It's funny how
they never noticed me up in that tree. But, I guess the two of
them were busy lost in their haze of romance and love. Even at
that height, I could hear thier two heartbeats as they embraced
each others for kisses. It was true love. I had that once.
I used to walk up just before sunlight, and I'd make a
surprise breakfasts in bed or I'd leave silly love poems under the
pillow when I knew it would be a late day at work.....but those
days have been gone for a long time. The time I felt love has been
so far distant that I can barely remember my love's face.
It was a night like this that I was changed forever. In
fact, It was this very tree that some monster sat in and watched
me and my love dine under a full moon. Like them, We paid no
attention to tree, but we did hear the squawks and the shifting of
branches. We only thought it was some restless bird. How right we were! But, This bird was hungry and had quite the appetite for my love. And as I laid there injured from the scratches and the
gashes from it's talons, I could feel my world fade as it ripped
into her like a large carrion bird. I passed out either from the
trauma or the loss of blood;I'm still not sure. But, I awoke.
Damn, I wished many times that I didn't survive....I wished the
creature would come back and finish me off. He did kill me. Ruined me and left me with a curse like his.
I'm all but a lonely bird now. Filled with a love-sickness
and a hunger that doesn't stop. "Squakkkk...Squakkk!"
