Buttocks, by Bruce Arbuckle

She has that dream, again.

She walks down the asile, on Dad’s arm. Her friends and family turn as she approaches. She returns their smiles. Then, as she passes the smiles turn to titters, the twittering to giggles, the giggling to laughs. It is then she feels the draught. Her father stops and looks at her.

“Haven’t you forgotten something?” he asks, his eyes twinkling.

She looks down. Her dress has disappeared.

She’s butt naked.

She wakes. John, snoring gently beside her, is oblivious.

She wonders what it means.

Her dad would’ve laughed if she’d told him.

She misses him.
