Description
Joseph had never known the sky could be so big. But somehow out here in the wilderness everything was clearer. A guy noticed things he couldn't see in the city. Maybe he had just been to busy stealing and running and hiding from the cops to look up. Or maybe being stuck with a bunch of losers and social worker was beginning to get to him. Whatever it was, the sky was huge, and full of stars. The stars were what Joseph liked best.
