Extended description

"Kirk had to get out. He’d made a promise he would.

"He’d been out for his daily walk in the cold, wet air, when he saw the strange campsite inside a narrow cluster of tall pines and leafless oaks that bordered three office full parking lots. He’d never noticed the junk before inside the patch of trees — a blue, lidless cooler set on its side, a green recycling container filled with what looked like old newspaper, a mildewy lawn chair, and a pile of blackened rocks in the middle of the pine-straw-littered ground. The cool, early-winter air coming from the site smelled of rotting vegetation and the hint of something dead."

A man's daily walk veers off into a trip into what slowly becomes a nightmare, as he encounters an odd homeless man outside his safe office who begins to haunt him. They strike a deal that may or may not be just what our hero wanted, after all...

A story of work, life, and the search for a true home.
