Cancelled
from Tall And True Short Reads
The shitstorm hit the Twitter fan overnight. Deeman had thought his followers would laugh at his sarcastic tweet. He'd watched a news clip about refugees from a COVID ravaged continent. And before setting aside his phone for the night, he'd retweeted it with a tongue-out emoji, "Let them eat COVID. In their own country. LOL!" Cancelled is a short story written and narrated by Robert Fairhead from the Tall And True writers' website.
