Innocent until proven guilty or vice-versa or whatever works best to their advantage
By Joseph D. Reich

Today I was at The Dollar General
with my client & there were these leftover chocolate crucifixes from Easter & wondered what was the phenomenon the point & purpose? Some good down-to-earth daughter (a slice of heaven) taking itty-bitty bites or nibbles while the raucous relatives with chemical dependency problems get stupid off booze & moonshine & wine coolers as wasn’t Easter supposed to be about his second coming or return or resurrection & wonder if he ever imagined himself on a chocolate cross in the dollar general store right next to where that house burnt down in the center of town across from the water treatment plant & slaughterhouse. Wonder if she had one of those eating disorders or simply watching her figure & left pieces of it in the freezer next to the TV dinners?
