The Attic
Word Of the Day Challenge: Pique
The room in the attic
is not empty
it is not lived in.
The room in the attic
is not quiet
it is not warm, it is not cold.
The room in the attic
was never a home
for anyone alive or anyone dead
but sometimes there is a light in the window
and the door swings open
then it closes softly again
the light blinks off
upstairs in the attic of my house
where no one has have ever lived
and no one has ever died.
Yet.
19 Days and Counting
When considering our Halloween Costumes what do we do?
We ask our shadows, ” hey guys, what’s looking good? ”
Most of what our shadows like to wear would give Stephen King nightmares and make your Grandma have a hissy fit, but THAT is what Halloween is all about.
The thing is, what if you honestly don’t have a single shadow or dark thought?
I know, humans are human and we all have shadows.
Unless you’re a dog.
This is one of my dog’s costumes- he’s a Unincorn.
