judas iscariot popped up
in my dream
offered me seven bucks
to watch her son in the morning
because he had the chicken pox
and she had to work
i felt bad because
i knew she couldn’t afford
to pay me
not even seven dollars
she cried when i gave her
the damp, worn bills back
and i got the feeling
that she hated me
for it as she walked away
sobbing in torn fishnets
late for her shift in the warehouse
Words and Feathers 
😦
Yeah. Not 100% sure about it.
This is really nice work. I don’t think she’ll hate you for long.
She didn’t seem like she would get over it.
Cool use of Judas and then the pivot to a female gender just trying to get by.
Thanks. It was a strange setup.
True story?
Well, I did really have the dream, so I guess the answer is yes.
