5 February: This is fiction – trigger warning
The Incident of the Woman from the House with Two Stone Lions The old house was saffron and butter colour, and those cicadas singing in the trees pushed us into manic.

3 February: Stream of Consciousness Saturday
Perfect Timing Time has a perfect view of my life. A clock in the kitchen, well, three actually, the microwave, the oven, and one on the wall that calibrates itself with some radio in Greenwich, a process worth marvelling over, if I cared to. And there’s a clock in the living room, two to be…

3rd February: Snagged
Snagged I’m like petulant weather,a martyr to salt-cures for scars and apathy, And today, I snagged my armon a canine-toothed thorn of a rose bush, Something prolificrolled off my ownerless tongue, but When the rain comes,it’ll wash that secret language out of my head. For Linda Hill’s JusJoJan “Canine”. It took a while for my head…

Frost covers the grass. Snow covers the roses. Ice covers the creek. Children are skating on it every day. The creek’s only…

29 January: Stream of Consciousness
Sunday morning: (304 words) He’s sitting in his brand new car, my neighbour, reading the user manual, I assume, although a moment later I see it’s The Times newspaper. He turns the page, shakes it straight, and folds it into a manageable rectangle. It rests on his steering wheel, and he’s drinking coffee with a…

27 January: Fallen
Fallen He’s unbalanced by gravity, plummets like currency. Tumbles on the trail and then disappears from view. There’s a bolt of noise through his head, and he looks around – a slow forest of ebony, trees of speech, lanky, a green canopy of limbs. The ground is thick, muddy, and bitter, and his eyes are…
