Killing him slowly
There’s an intruder in my house again. He stumbles through the door, wet carrier bags in hand. He’s bought me offerings. I show my appreciation, letting him caress my beautiful body. He wants to touch me. I rub myself against his legs. He sighs, dropping the bags. He can’t resist touching me. Running his hand slowly down my spine, I arch my back towards his caress, let out a low purr. It’s what we both need.

The Black Forest Hunter
art Three: The Forest Remembers The night in the Black Forest was unlike any other night Khalid had known. It was not merely the absence of the sun, but the presence of something else. Something that breathed between the trees, crawled beneath the fallen leaves, whispered in the hollows of ancient trunks.

The Channel 3 Broadcast Archive: Why I Stopped Buying Unmarked VHS Tapes
There is a specific smell to forgotten media. It’s a mixture of degrading plastic, basement mildew, and the metallic tang of static electricity. If you frequent estate sales in the rural Midwest, you know exactly the scent I’m talking about. Most people go looking for antique furniture or vintage jewelry. I go looking for magnetic tape.

In June
June 3 I find myself still strangely lightheaded from my purchase this afternoon. My intent upon entering the antique shop had been merely to escape the sweltering heat, yet I soon found myself in the back of the place, standing before a statue, my breath heavy and rhythmic, my hand rubbing at my wallet. I cannot recall crossing through the store.

Stranger Danger. Content Warning.
“Booty going up down,” I scream as I make my way to the dancefloor. Some good old T-Pain blasting through the speakers and a few tequila shots is just what I needed. It's been forever since I've been out with my girls and just let loose. But after the crappy day I had at work, letting loose was just what I needed. The colorful lights cutting through the dark, the hot clammy air, and the smell of cheap perfumes, alcohol, and sweat don't faze me as I twerk all my sorrows away. A big manly hand lands on my waist. Firmly but gently, I'm being held, and without even looking to see who this stranger is, I turn it up a notch as the DJ smoothly transitions into dancehall. Dancehall Queen starts blasting through the club, and it's on. Time to show these suckers who the real dancehall queen is. As I bump and grind on this stranger, his grip becomes firmer, and it awakens my curiosity. Without being too obvious, I decide to see who I'm dancing with. The club is dark, and so is he as I catch a glimpse of him. Just enough for me to confirm that I like what I see. In one smooth movement, I turn around, and we're now dancing face to face. He's wearing a black satin button-up that shows a big part of his chest, which is glistening with sweat.

The Neighborhood Association Sent a Fine for My Husband’s Heart Attack
The letter arrived in a cream-colored envelope, embossed with the gold leaf seal of the Maple Crest Homeowners Association. It was tucked neatly into our mailbox, precisely three inches from the right-hand edge, exactly as the bylaws mandated.

The Overtoun Bridge Dog Suicides
The Overtoun Bridge near Milton, Scotland, is a beautiful Victorian structure built in 1895 that arches gracefully over the Overtoun Burn fifty feet below, offering scenic views of the Scottish countryside, and it should be an unremarkable example of nineteenth-century engineering except for the deeply disturbing fact that since the 1950s over six hundred dogs have jumped from the bridge to their deaths or serious injury, and the dogs almost always jump from the same side of the bridge, almost always at the same spot between the final two parapets, and many of the dogs that survive the fall and are rescued have attempted to jump again, returning to the bridge and leaping a second time as though compelled by some force their owners cannot understand or control, creating one of the most bizarre and unsettling mysteries in the modern world. The phenomenon has been documented for decades, with local residents and visitors reporting seeing dogs suddenly break away from their owners, jump up onto the parapet wall, and leap over the edge without any apparent provocation or warning, and the consistency of the behavior across hundreds of different dogs of various breeds and temperaments suggests something about the specific location triggers this suicidal behavior rather than individual psychological issues with particular animals, though what that triggering factor might be has never been definitively determined despite extensive investigation by animal behaviorists, scientists, and even paranormal researchers.
