The tape holding a small child's drawing crinkled as it shifted, struggling to hold onto the old wall that it had been hung up on years prior. It depicted a perfect family; a man, a woman and a little girl.

The trailer it was in, was covered in empty beer bottles, open plastic vials, and a variety of red and blue pills. It was a mess. The occupant of the trailer didn't give two shits though, living in a pile of garbage, like he was now, wasn't gonna make his life any worse than it already was.
