Some of the signs in the strip mall plaza next to the highway:
Missing dog: Cockapoo. Coco.
Missing dog: Reese. Loves peanut butter.
Missing person: Dereck. 23 years old.
There’s a woman driving in the wrong lane heading straight towards me. Later I see the same woman pull out of the gas station and run a red light.
Above, two shiny foil balloons are drifting above the plaza, over the McDonald's, over the gas station, over the shuttered garage, floating higher and higher.
