Surfer On The Drift

From today:

Blackened, the frag oozed and pimpled and dripped and calcified and bubbled and seeped.  It looked like it might be eating into the remains of both bodies, erasure by an alien acid.

From today:

     "Everyone living right now will still die.  You're wailing and complaining over a few lost hours that won't resonate in the scheme of things.  In the coin of the realm, those hours are of a penny significance.  To me, to the universe, to the beyond beyond even my comprehension of the beyond, the murder of this world at this moment in time means nothing.  Worse has happened.  Worse is happening.  Worse will happen."

From today:

I'd never surfed in more than two lanes of traffic, and never ever while also having to keep in mind a quantum buttload of pedestrians.  It was like Spock forgetting to factor in space debris or the possibility some other ship other than the Enterprise might be attempting to slingshot the sun that same exact moment.

From today:

Right before impact, Dawn wondered what kind of chips would go ok with the sandwich.  Ruffles weren't bad, but she'd always been a Fritos kind of girl.  Fritos were applicable in any instance, a solid sodium injection riding slack, even to an end-of-the-world sandwich.

From today:

     Her hair had receded until it was only a few random flickering strands on top of her skull.  Nubs, the beginnings of horns, were growing out of her head slowly like somewhere someone was pressing down on a resistance-heavy lever. Protruding, the horns gleamed like freshly polished white beans.

From today:

I could hear the goliath, the scrip-scrape of ghost skin.  And I could hear Tube Man snapping, performing his come-hither, come-with-me-to-Hell dance.
