Witch Piss

Witch Piss

I noticed it was beginning to get dark. And for a couple seconds, it was scaryâ€”like that meant the world was breaking, or expired, or bruised, or something worse. It was really scary for a couple seconds but then I calmed down. Up above, the moonlit clouds looked rippled, like the ribcage of some giant thing digesting me.

And I wondered if the direction I was going went down into the digestive system or up out of it. Wondered what difference it made. There was a bug hovering over a small pool of ice cream on the sidewalk. Like a firefly, but it wasnâ€™t a firefly. And I couldâ€™ve stepped on it and killed it. But I didnâ€™t. Be thankful, little bug. For in my world, you are just a little bug.
