They answered her call
Ten ravens circled his door
Murder in the air

Serving a Burnt dish
At the grocery store, there they are again. The people who come with a hot dish to serve. Shoot their gun at me. A poor little house wife they underestimate. My apron is bulletproof and the bullet bounces right off. I pull the lipstick out of the pocket of the apron. it is actually a one shot pistol. A smaller bullet than theirs that hits them. they cry to everyone about it, leaving out the part where they tried to shoot me with a bigger bullet. They could barely handle the serving of my warm dish after they tried to throw a burnt one at me.

A Destination Needs A Dreamer
Gatlin heard the violin every evening on the commute back from work. Wending between warm rushing bodies on the subway, eyes forward, bag clasped protectively at her side, she drank it in at the same time as she didn't slow. It was probably the best part of her day. The shivering strains crescendoed and collapsed, tugging at something in her core. She'd never seen the violinist, but whoever he was, he was clearly a master, clearly professionally trained. The music always seemed to be coming from somewhere further down the track, around a bend, just out of eyeshot. She'd come to think fancifully that it was something only she could hear. She’d come to think of it as her future, calling.
