    I’m just going to report it, Murray and I may have hatched in the same nest, but he’s no feathered specimen of intellect and I hope he flies into a window. Speaking of feathered intellect, I’m dictating this to my friend Ebony. She’s one smart chicken who can write. Also she will be sticking around this winter whereas I’ll be flying south. So for the reporters that will inevitably come around looking for the bird brain who wrote this, she’ll be here and I’ll be in Mexico feasting on tacos and tostados and hanging out with my other good  bird friend Hemmingway.  I probably should describe Ebony...gDxone door

    Burning Down

    By the time I stepped outside, the leaves were on fire and all I could do was panic.That hadn't been how the day started. It had started normally with coffee and talking to my friend, Natalie.

    The Broken Mirror

    There was a stench in the garden. A deathy kind of stench to be more exact. It smelled like something was very dead and very not intact anymore. Or so he thought. He followed his nose and it led him to a cat which was, just as he had suspected, very dead and very not intact anymore. “Dogs..” he muttered to himself.It was a nice neighbourhood. It wasn’t a modern neighbourhood, nor was it historic. It was a mix of both. But it was nicely looked after. Manicured lawns, nice flowerbeds, nicely painted walls, fancy pets and the latest lawn ornaments. And then there was the house next to his. It was...gDxone door
