This is a debut short story. What happens when new, intense love mixes with jealousy and insecurity? Michelle has met the man of her dreams and wants him all to herself. Will she get what she wants and will it give her the happiness she craves?War is hell, according to William Tecumseh Sherman. That was then. Now, war is a game played by established rules, by mutual agreement, by gentlemen, and only when all other means of problem resolution have failed. Suffering, real human misery, can be reduced or even eliminated when war is kept within boundaries. War is now a much more attractive prospect, in this satire. It even makes an odd kind of economic sense, as production equates with prosperity. War is disruptive to the natural environment, and that’s always a concern too. All we are saying, is give war a chance. A short story.
