Background: My high school life around here is pretty normal. I got Cs in most of my classes and lettered in two sports, Football and wrestling. I was the Line backer in football and Heavy weight in Wrestling. Went all state three times for wrestling and our team went to state twice. We never won though and there are still some bitter moments for me there. All too often my life has been a series of moments that led up to failure at the last moment. I do not know why it always seems that my luck turns for the worse just when things seem to be going great. Prime example, Sheryl, oh god Sheryl, I loved this girl from the first time that I met her. She moved into my hometown when I first started high school. We hit it off great. She loved that I was such a big guy and I loved that she was such a petite girl. I could pick her up with one hand on her ass. The way she looked at me and the way she kissed me made me feel like I was 13 feet tall and bullet proof. I guess that is also why I got into so many fights at school. Never really got into trouble for them, that was one benefit of being a football player in a town where football is rated just below god, and during playoffs and homecoming out rated even god. My girlfriend being black girl in our school seemed to make them nuts. I never understood why there was such an issue with her for so many people. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Her parents were fairly well off, I mean definitely rich compared to my folks. We lived in a trailer and they lived in the new sub division north of town. Her father had been brought in to manage the Caterpillar plant and my dad worked for the same plant, as a line worker. We could not have been more different now that I think about it. Maybe that is why I got into so many fights. Defending her honor from assholes that got stupid with her, because she was black or because her daddy ran the plant, was a full time job for me. I never really thought about it that way before. Probably would explain a lot. Then of course that could never last. Last week, when I found out she was pregnant, was just too much. I talked to my dad and mom, made some arrangements and setup a job for myself at the plant so that I could take care of her. My parents were not thrilled and it took everything that I had to convince them that I was doing the right thing. When I went to her place last night to tell her how much I loved her and ask her to marry me, I was in for the shock of my life. She was not there but her father was. He told me that his wife and daughter had gone to get her an abortion and that it was my entire fault. I hated him in that moment. I do not even remember hitting him. Just suddenly standing there looking down on him as he lay on the floor. I think his neck broke. God I do not even know why I am telling you this stuff. I am sure glad though that you are giving me a lift down to the bus station. Come to think about it again why am I telling you all of this? I do not think that I like the way you are smiling at me like…
Master calls me ra-ok, ra-ok sab. Master says watch the tiny ones to be sure that none of them run away or try to steal Master’s things. Watch them close says Master. When the tiny ones are bad Master says smash and ra-ok smashes. It is ra-oks reason to be. Make Master happy and smash tiny ones if they steal Masters Things or make Master unhappy. Master happy is ra-ok happy. If Master says, ra-ok does. Tiny ones make things for Master. The Masters ra-ok likes the things Tiny Ones make. Good ra-ok watches close like ra-ok is told to. He is not told to but ra-ok makes things with Tiny Ones. Some Tiny Ones make bad noises because ra-ok is good at making things for Master. Tiny things try to run from making place. Master is unhappy and Master has ra-ok punish Tiny Ones for trying to run away. But ra-ok remembers something, hurting people is bad. Ra-ok Sab does not know where Ra-ok heard that. But Ra-ok feels that it is a right thing. Hurting Tiny Ones makes Tiny Ones unhappy. Sometimes Master makes Ra-ok fight other big things. Ra-ok fights better than the other big things. This makes Master happy. Master happy is Ra-ok hap… Ra-ok does not like hurting things. Things make bad noises when Ra-ok hits them. Master makes Ra-ok hurt things; make the red come out of other Big Things. Red coming out of other big things and bad noises make unhappy Ra-ok. Pretty small thing comes for Ra-ok to watch. Master makes pretty thing work very hard grunting and moaning. Ra-ok remembers these are pretty noises. Master makes little thing scream and cry. Tears run down little things face. Master leaves laughing at little thing. Little thing is making bad noises, same noises that Big things make when Ra-ok hits them. Ra-ok must help little thing. Ra-ok waits until little thing goes to sleep and Master is gone to do Master things. Ra-ok sneaks over to little thing and picks up little thing with one hand. One hand is all Ra-ok needs to carry little thing. This is good so that Ra-ok can protect little thing. Little thing wakes up and Ra-ok croons too little thing. Sings song that Ra-ok does not know where he learned it. Song makes little thing stay quiet. Ra-ok runs with little thing. Must save little thing. Little thing is more important that Ra-ok.

Little Thing is dead like Ra-ok made the other Big Things. Ra-ok howls his pain and Little Things pain into the dark of the cool place, the soft place. The place is not like Ra-ok remembers.
