this morning #1423.

this morning, just as i shifted into a higher gear & began to close in on him, dude paused, squatted & grew a pair of wings out of the middle of his back. rocketed right up into the sky. FREAKIN’ WINGS. i stopped & stared skyward stunned as he cut through the clouds & faded into the atmosphere. a suspect eluding me via flight? that’s a new one for me. when the guys on the team find out about this, they’re going to think i’ve lost my damn mind. if i hadn’t witnessed it with my own two eyes, i’d have to agree. for the rest of the day’s shift, i just sort of wandered around. drove down to the beach. shut off the radio. avoided all calls. kept asking myself what the hell was even real anymore.
