ellenkushnerEach week they put a new story up on the Interfictions Annex. And each week I think, Aha, this one's my favorite!
Ron Pasquariello's "The Chipper Dialogues" is so short that if I quote you all my favorite passages, I'll have almost the whole thing up here! Suffice it to say that it's a conversation, in haiku, between a man & his beloved dog. Samples:
A human in a rush.
Dog, a leash, a row of trees.
Hurry @#$%& dog.
Morning ritual –
A tree sniffed. A leg lifted.
Thus, each tree I bless.
or

The prescription: Hold cute dog.
Rub belly, throw kiss.
Lo, a prescription
Take two biscuits. Feed to dog.
Call him in the morning.
