Standing still. Standing ovation. Scars haven’t healed. Fate has yet to be sealed. Still pouring salt in wounds. Blood trickles down, a little too soon. ...
In her corner, she spins thick spindles of thread. A web slightly above her own head. One that she has weaved and woven Below her feet is a ditch dug, six feet deep. In her corner, Arachne sews anger and solace, Boastfulness and rudeness had become her. And the stressed woman...
You stand within a corridor of several entries. Doors painted gold. They are without panes of glass Or ornamental calligraphy. Your hands conduct electric waves that vibrate when you touch them. The door reverberates like a holographical oil slick that turns to dust when you pull away. In your pocket, you hold three...
