People like us, Paul. The rubik's cube is the perfect distraction and carrying it everywhere must have given him a sense of stability when everything is so uncertain. Great story.

Hi Jenny. The moon is amazing isn't it, like an old friend or relative, dependable and bright. Thank you for reading my story, I'm pleased that it resonated with you.

I really enjoyed this. At first it made me think of Nuts In May and the way you described the heat and the children playing is very atmospheric. The mad man, incongruously dressed for the heat but turns out he was preparing for what was coming....

Posted on Tue, 02 Sep 2025
I'm loving the surreal elements, the awkward interactions combined with danger and mystery. There is an intensity from Billy, he's attracting the supernatural. The coastal background makes for very cinematic imagery.

I'd almost forgotten what rain was like Jenny. A change in the way does indeed give you a new perspective and refreshes you in many ways; a reminder that nature is always in charge. 'Billowing deluge upon this thirsty land', the sort of clouds...

So bizarre but also believable. The salty sea dog man with insect legs sticking out from his teeth. I know he exists somewhere. And the paranoia, a churchy element. It's so well done and so brilliant!

Posted on Thu, 07 Aug 2025
A perfect poem for the full moon, Jenny. It was better to be cursed by a witch than to be accused of being one. Celest is a beautiful name and you describe so well the contrast between the cold, simple men with guns and the rich magical couple...
