The Crossing (a drabble)
"An aluminum john boat?"
"It's a little different for everybody."
"Yeah, but, it's just a john boat. Like the one I got from Wal-Mart."
"Yep."
"So how does this work?"
"You get in. Don't fall out. We go across."
"So, what if I stay here?"
"Then you dwell in a place dear to you until you go insane. Those around you are driven into madness or despair, then they leave you behind. Best case scenario."
"What's the worst case?"
"Something finds you."
"You found me."
"I find everyone."
"What else is there?"
"Trust that there are worse things than death."
