In “The Mouth,” an unemployed man is anguished to watch his pet mouth go hungry.

STORY EXCERPT:

            …The clock ticks loudly on the wall, and Paul glances at it sideways, as if trying to conceal his impatience. He wants this over with.
          “I can’t lose this job,” Samuel says. “I’ve got a mouth to feed.”
          Paul raises his eyebrows. His mouth forms a brief O. “I didn’t know you had a child.”
          Would that change things, Samuel wonders, if he did?
          “Not a child,” he corrects. “Just a mouth.”
          The manager laughs. A short, nervous sound, like a hiccup. He thinks Samuel was joking
