...have kept her
In a cage too

That's what you get
I think
Look at the light
And blink
Trust is like using a sieve
As a safety net

The aspen leaves were quaking, but there was no breeze. Windows & doors were closed & locked tight. The banshee howl roared with death across the valley. Families huddled together in their homes, hoping that they would not be chosen by the cacodemon. #horrorprompt #vss365

The ET's ship had alit in the square, frightening the village's denizens. They ran to their cottages to hide. A creature emerged, its mouth began yawning, propelling a captivating siren wail. Mesmerized, villagers trod to the square's edge & bowed. #horrorprompt #vss365 #Scififri

Yeah, I admit it was fun when I was younger. But I had a friend who drank it the way some people drink Starbucks.

Digital, magical, something unknown, she’ll track me. How do I dissociate from the moss and mushroom siren? All I want is my life back. She tells me, I’ll drown in my own blood as witches advocate. No way out. Help me!

Detached from the world
cold smiles staring back
wandering with no place to go
no seat at the table
Now he moves about with a vengeful mind

His dissociation with humanity wasn't new. His sociopathy was life-long. Each month, he'd choose one of the deadly sins & act it out. His favorite was anger. There were so many ways to display it. On this occasion, he chose gluttony by eating his neighbor. #horrorprompt #vss365

"What do you mean, she can't remember what happened?"

"When it's so traumatic, your mind can #dissociate from the event, suppress all the details. It's a defense mechanism."

He sighed. "Can we do anything?"

"If, *when* it resurfaces, that memory can be worse than we can imagine."

The aspen heart lands the instant the first drop of blood hits the floor.

According to the advertisement, this new medicine was similar to a cure-all tonic from the 1940s. However, it was discontinued due to negative side effects. These reactions to the cough syrup were far worse than just a rash or upset stomach.

He was emotionally isolated like a deserted island. Yet he craved human contact. Not for support or love but for their blood. He dreamed of being a real-life vampire. Draining his prey's blood, he'd congeal it to the viscosity of cough_syrup for his dinner. #horrorprompt #vss365

"What's in this #cough_syrup?"

"Something to help you rest, dear. It'll make you a little sleepy, but that's how you know it's working. You'll wake up a brand new person."

He closed his eyes, feeling his chest lighter, his breaths shallower.
