Jack and Jill

“Jack and Jill” is a nursery rhyme that grew up poor. Two people off the will, living in a grandmother’s house on the hill, working minimum wage and still coming up short. Cheap thrills become pills, bottles become change, dreams get sold for a line. Jill cannot recognize her face. Jack is gone inside his own head. The story is not a gag about two names. It is what happens when the money runs out and the only trade left is the next hit for another day.
