Goodwill sold the framed puzzle to me for $15. $15! That’s cheap! The rabbit is tweaked public domain clipart. Note the potted plant that serves as the rabbit’s heart. That’s happenstance without significance. Here’s an old story for you. A little girl sneaks to the attic to feed mulberry leaves to the silkworms. Out the attic window, hills of grasses blow, a carriage approaches. After dinner the little girl politely restrains herself from mad joy when her father has a prize horse brought into the house. Hooves clatter and slip on marble floors. Hours of men’s voices, she drowsy, sucks on sugar, recalls a candle flame through pheasant feathers, the crisscross-sliced and clove-dotted body of a pig. In the night-nurse’s arms she’s coddled to her room. Cloth slips from her body, then onto her body. A pan of hot stones comforts her bed. In the warmth she glimpses a goose’s beak, cow shanks pulling from mud, cotton spun in other rooms. Contact Information http://www.stalkingtheelusivepilky.com/ |
