The Day After They Rounded Up Everyone Who Could Love Unconditionally

I drink orange juice straight from the carton. Like heat spreading out from a swallow of wine, the memories of what happened yesterday flow through me. So many surprises.

Like the fact that so few people were taken. Not much disruption at all.

A lot less painful than expected, like getting a shot from the doctor. So much anticipation, so little payoff.

And the ease of it all. Slow and graceful and gentle. Excuse me, sir, would you come with us please? Sheepish looks and shrugs, not surprised at all to be found out but maybe they'd been hoping to stay under the radar. May I just grab my purse and jacket? No, you won't be needing them, ma'am.
