Past Due
“Closed: NO TRESPASSING!“ I stood facing the faded red letters on the front door of the corpse of the Sparta Library, and considered what to do next. On the off chance there happened to be someone, anyone, still working in the building, I gave a few hard knocks. No response. No surprise. I knew it was a long shot from the condition of the building. The blue roof was starting to chip and peel, the pathway was strewn with litter, and the grass was threatening to overtake the small brass butterfly statues in the front lawn, frozen in flight and unable to escape.After a moment’s thought, I detoure...
THE WORLD INSIDE MY HEAD

Dorothy's delight
“If this isn’t the most BORING party I’ve ever attended…! Dorothy surveys the scene with irritation.“Taking into account my years in a girls only school and 40 years of attending my husband’s work functions, it is a harsh judgement, but sadly true.” Dorothy is discreetly talking quietly to herself. She does not want to hurt the children’s feelings; they mean it well.“They know I’m not fond of big functions and even less of a fuss being made over me; however, seeing that this event was organised to honour me, the current mood is a slap in mywww.onedoor.cc old face. I’ll have to intercede!”The guests are sta...
