Where the scary things are
Max had what you would call “episodes” or that’s what his mother had been calling them. They started when he was young and progressively got worse to the point where she considered having him committed. The things that happened to him even brought Child Welfare Services to their door. It wasn’t just the things he would say it was the physical marks all over his body. There were deep scratches and bruises, even some burns that perplexed the local physicians. This went on for years until Max learned that the more he told people about the things he’d seen the more difficult his life became. So he...
The Dark Knight
A shadow of a figure was running in the dark. All around were tall trees, and only a small fraction of the moon’s rays got through the canopy. The ground was a black void with no difference between the dirt and the tree roots. A pack of wolves howled in the distance.

Egyptian Goddess Isis watched the sun rise and set off on her way. It was the hottest part of the day when she was near Glen’s farm. She thought “Why not I slake my thirst and rest here a while?” She softly descended and went into the barn of Glen’s house. A dog – I should say a female dog started sniffing and Isis patted her on the neck. She read the name ‘Melba’ on the collar on the neck and said “Melba, don’t make any noise. I’m goddess Isis come to take rest.” She drank water from a brook and sat on a stuffed wooden bedstead in the barn. She told herself “Very hot outside but cool within.”...
