Sleep
By Aidan Castle | he/him/his | Tacoma, Washington, USA
The City is set to bulldoze this land, crushing and clearing the possessions of the people who live here. There are about fifty, and they have been warned, each flier printed in color on glossy paper as though it was an invitation to a party. A few have been lucky enough to get temporary housing, but the others will have to find another overpass. Another vacant lot. Another place where they can be for a while, until the next flier gets posted.
