Alternate Sources of Light
by Rachelle Scott
The dream is on the move in her bone house. She glides from room
to room in her black nightgown, turning the lights off. It’s darker
than dark. Something is wrong with the moon. A white spider rises
from its dusty corner and, hanging by a thread, begins to shine.
