Well, there you have it. 

…and she lifted off

Closed Window

 

There were three new signs today, two covered in plastic covers made for a three ring binder, taped to the window.

“THE WINDOWS WILL REMAIN CLOSED UNTIL 1:00 pm FOR All QUESTIONS, SAMPLE PICK UP, SPECIMEN DROP OFF, AND CHECK INS”

on the closed window 

“We are at

lunch from 

12:00 PM-

1:00PM”

“Please do not change the channel” 

on a precisely severed paper 1/3 of its original size taped and hanging from the bottom of the television in the corner.

11 eyes, 3 eyes, one eye, if an eye is looking it can see.

May I take a gander down a path gone before, spells and words spin the dust from mid ground. 

It's smoke filled with shimmers of rattles, a deep drum beat that lulls the step in time.

Scents of jasmine and rose meander here and thicker there.

A look deep in the woods and the amber tone of the setting sun catches your eye on the long fallen leafed ground, layered with tree limbs, through fresh green you can see how life starts, with decay.0

Signage

 

“…Zolpidem, lasix…”, she leaned her heavy body against the counter and speaks quietly to the woman behind the frosted shoji style windows, of which the center has a noticeable assortment of plastic sheet covered papers, some brightly coloured, two in simple black and white and yet others sternly highlighted. A wide bright red cloth with staggered white flowers covered her thick body like a tent, but decorated. Black long pants with slip on shoes, her toes barely squeezed through, the backs of her dry cracked bloated feet hang off the end. Her checks blended with her neck, plum hewed and scaly. 

“What’s your date of birth?”

“10. 2. 71, I stopped taking my allopurinol in October because I thought the doctor told me to and my nephrologist wants me to see what my chart says…”

“But I don’t know if I miss heard him…”

“Says here that you should be taking it.”

Her question answered the red draped woman turned to the left and faced two doors, one with a large white sign with red lettering signifying Exit, above the door another Exit sign , this one lighted behind red plastic. The other door a bit set back had two signs, an almost matching Exit sign but stating Not An Exit and underneath a taped to the door black and white paper aggressively highlighted in a preternatural bright yellow, an explanation that the door used to be unlocked but from hence forth it will remained locked until you are invited through.

Her out turned feet make their way, her upper body jostles back and forth with each step to the door with the Exit sign on and above.

  

Witch Doctor

 

The long bleak hallway rolled past her eyes, the air filled with drifting dead cells and spells, a printed name on a pedestrian paper taped to an intersection accompanied by an arrow. Down the hallow hall another paper signifying the place between worlds and a blue and white open/closed sign, flipped to open.

She pulled down the handle, opened the door to the space in the place and was met with the same drab lifelessness. 

In walked the Witch Doctor.

May Days

 

7am 1 May

The morning dewed grass started out as silver green, the full moon far away, the crisp mountain air had a touch of warmth with the smell of a fire somewhere. 

2pm 1 May

The chatter in the liminal space follows a flow, soft, staggered, then drifts, then all at once till it’s their time.
