The Street Lit Blog

Since I've moved to Missoula, the Street Lit authors in Austin have moved to a new site at http://streetlitauthors.org/, run by the awesome Tony Nuñez and Phil Force. 

Below you'll find Street Lit news posts from my Austin years with the group, and a selection of the creative works of the
 Street Lit Authors Club. I'll be posting new works from the Missoula folks sooner than later, so keep an eye on us. We've got great things in the works.

Comments are encouraged, and don't forget to share with your friends on Facebook & Twitter! Please consider a financial donation as well--your contributions keep the words (and the coffee) flowing!

An unfulfilled quest

An unfulfilled quest
by Marcilas Jackson

​I really don’t remember the name of the story. I know it was about some guy named Macomber. There were others involved, too. I really don’t remember their names. 

I think there was 
a wife, 
a guide, 
and a tiger.

My instructor, Professor Griffith, asked me to write a paper on the three unfulfilled quests in the story. To this day I cannot remember the goals of the people in the story: Macomber, his wife, and the guide. 

I can only remember there were in fact 
four quests in the story.

The tiger that was killed was on a quest of its own.
It never made it to the top of the hill. 
It could have had cubs. 
I don’t know. 
Now it was no more. 
It was forgotten. 

An unfulfilled quest.
