The sound of hefty steps above made him stop…
It must have been his imagination.
The heavy storm was bashing the windows,
Someone left it open…but no one else lived there.
Through the darkness of the night he saw a shadow…
followed by a bitter cold touch of his shoulders,
He turned, frightened to the bone.
The shade of a creature was swallowed by the ground…
Descending with great speed to the bottom of his feet,
He saw the old and broken past…
Looking down the rabbit hole!

This is excellent, and for me there are several layers within this one, including the terrible fear that a child can have for it’s own toys…a great contribution to dark side thursday thank you Julia!

This, I like. The way the fear builds and then passes with a little embarrassment. Lovely.
