wishing

There isn’t any water left in the well. There was, once, a long time ago. There was probably a bucket, too, but now there is only a rope.

Wells do go dry sometimes.

Can you make wishes in an empty well? Well, I’m certain you can make them, but can they be granted by bucketless emptiness?

Or does it need the water?

What water once was there is now buried in years of accumulated coins. Layers and layers of old wishes.

I suppose there can be too many wishes, even for a wishing well.

doll parts

A limb goes first. The joint will come loose, or the threads will weaken and snap. Arms and legs are easily lost.

Torsos are fragile things. Once the limbs are gone the torso will soon follow.

The heads last longer. The heads remain for quite some time.

Sometimes the eyes will linger.

In other cases the eyes will tire of staring and roll quietly away.

It is difficult to pinpoint the moment when it is no longer a doll.

invasion advice

As a general rule, is better to appear friendly. Apparent friendliness yields a higher rate of success.

Split into small groups as not to be overwhelming. Three to five is best.

Do not approach your prey. Let it come to you.

Patience is key. There is plenty of time.

Keep your mouth shut until they are too close to get away.

Disguising yourself as some other sort of creature is recommended, but not mandatory.

boo.

Ghosts are everywhere.

They dwell in cabinets and old shoes and shrubberies, waiting to sneak up on you when you least expect them.

They hide in the scent of crisp leaves on windy days. They curl around your feet and pull you back into autumns past with unanticipated force.

They do not wait for you to be prepared.

You might assume they are relegated to haunted places. Cemeteries and abandoned houses and foggy moonlit depths of night.

But ghosts are not afraid of the sun. They are everywhere, everytime.

And there is no avoiding them.

cobweb

It is lovely in its simple complexity.

A methodical tangle of string.

Airy and weightless. Fragile.

Until you touch it and it won’t let go.

They call it a web, but it is more than that.

It is a boundary. It is a cage.

To keep things in.

To keep things out.
