Note: this will be part of a ‘zine called LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM.

I slept through my alarm.

(Where is my mom?)

My kids missed the bus.

I don’t want to take them to school.

(I am hungry. I cannot find my husband or children.)

(We have no where to sleep. We cannot sleep!)

I don’t have time to make coffee—I’ll get some at work.

(I am hurt. Where is the water, I am thirsty…)

This traffic is horrible!

(I am losing my baby! I am in so much pain!)

I have to cook when I get home.

I wonder if there are any leftovers?

(Everyone is dead! How is everyone dead?!)

What a day!

I need to take a hot bath and sleep.

(When will all this be over?

We have nowhere to hide!

Does God not see?)
