  1. Old folklore gets wonderfully disturbing when you realise how many rules were basically:

    Don’t answer it. Don’t follow it. Don’t invite it inside. Don’t tell it your name.

    Which, naturally, makes me want to know what happens when you do.

  8. The moths have been following me for four days.

    At first, only outside.

    Yesterday, they covered my office window.

    Today, one crawled out of my mouth while I was talking.

    I crushed it.

    Every moth outside stopped moving at the same time.

  13. Podcast Episode: ROCK DEDICATION: He Never Died (Dedicated to JEFFREY

    Now I know the mysteries of the sea, Tranquil emerald hues, emerald blues, enrapture me, Forever embraced with the mermaid queen, Now I know why the mariner nervously glances, Why no one on Grand Isle will ever say he died. For I too, will never die. They say he never died! In the night his spirit glides, Through the cold the sea roars, Pierre lives on forevermore.
