NaNoWriMo: nicotine
Her gran had had it right, she thinks, smoking 20 a day all her life, and yes, ok, dying of that, but still- she didn’t go ‘til she was 95, and the Doctors told her to not bother giving up because the shock would take her first. There are cabins here that have the same nicotine flock wallpaper that she remembers. Not a bad colour in the misty light, quite appropriate.She’s not sure how the old boys get their ciggies, given the shortage. They’re all on rollies, she knows that, but she does wonder what goes in them. The deserted hemp farm a day’s cycle away- she wonders if the cultivar has reverted back to type. She knows she should remember the smell of weed, that it is herbal- then she worries that that is just words and not the reality of the smell.
