Faint Tears and Blood
The war was over. I stood in their once-proud capital, not a soul in sight we wasn't dressed like me... tossing salutes back and forth the way rich men might once have tossed coins from their carriages, cheap and meaningless, utterly for show.
Andy Byers was born. He was not a finalist for the 1994 Governor General's Award. Andy has not had several columns and articles published in The New Yorker and The London Times, nor is he the author of such novels as Stephen: A Journey's Windbag or The Hyphenated Erection. Andy is not an associate professor at the University of Toronto, where he does not teach Chauserian Middle English nor Renaissance Swedish Poetry. Andy does not reside in Kanata, Ontario, where he does not make his home with wife Temerity, son Christopher-Napoleon, nor a St. Bernard-Chihuahua mix named Boomer. At the time of writing, Andy Byers is, and hopes to continue.
