I was in Arkansas, looking for a certain grave, when I discovered that I was not alone. The deer stayed long enough for me to get a picture and then ran along. This picture is a reminder that there is beauty even among sadness.

“O little one,
My little one,
Come with me,
Your life is done.
Forget the future,
Forget the past.
Life is over:
Breathe your last.”

“Walls have ears.
Doors have eyes.
Trees have voices.
Beasts tell lies.
Beware the rain.
Beware the snow.
Beware the man
You think you know.”
Songs of Sapphique (Catherine Fisher)

“There are horrors beyond life’s edge that we do not suspect, and once in a while man’s evil prying calls them just within our range.”
The Thing on the Doorstep (H.P. Lovecraft)

“We ask only to be reassured
About the noises in the cellar
And the window that should not have been open.”
— T.S. Eliot (The Family Reunion)
