"Oh, what's the use? I'll never get it to work!" Ethan whines, and kicks the chasis again. This time the engine sputters and coughs, and the chainsaw comes to life. "Excellent!" Ethan says with a sinister smile as he turns back to the people bound and gagged on the floor behind him. "Now where were we?"
classic
She sits and stares out across the crowded room from her spot on the bleachers, the coldness of the steal bleeding into the back of her thighs through the gauzy white material of her dress. "A timeless classic", it turns out, was the saleslady's way of saying "This dress is sold old-fashioned, that when you wear it, you'll get old waiting for someone to ask you to dance."
approach
As the lights dim around him, Leslie's pace slows and his steps echo beat after beat after beat down the coldwhitelinoleum path of the darkened hallway A electric hum charges the air Buzzing Loud then silence then LOUD
wanted
On the highest of shelves, in the darkest corner I sit still and wait, gathering dust One day, some day, some day, one day. I know, I hope, for someone must Want a new teddy, as I want a new owner.
figure
Stare across the dark blue vast to the other side of the bay and yonder on the farther shore a figure, draped in soft ash gray. A mournful cry sweeps over on the gentle, summer breeze and echoes all around the park as it whispers through the trees The leaves begin to fall with speed flying from the nearby branches green gold yellow red and brown how quickly now the time advances A shiver rustles through the grass and chases off the sun and warm night rapidly begins to fall as tiny icy crystals form The shore-bound figure turns dark as the biting wind begins to cry turn your back to cold white flakes that cascade as glitter from the sky A faint glow lights the shore again as dark and cold begin to fade color returns slowly to the horizon where that constant figure swayed Glance once more toward the bay Squint across the fading black there on the bright'ning horizon A soft pink figure smiles back
wander
Down and back, down and back All along the rutted path O'er cobblestone and dusty plains Wander, wanderer, down and back To and fro, to and fro Through the darkness, onward go 'Cross knee-high fields and tow'ring wood Wander, wanderer, to and fro On and on, on and on Fight the wind and blazing sun Through sleet and rain and snow and hail Wander, wanderer, on and on To the horizon, through the sky Wander, wanderer, wander.
