“And The Word Became Flesh” (2003) by Jeffrey Harp
They say meeting your doppelgänger means certain death. When I was a tot, I saw another one just like me:
1. Not quite old.
2. Not quite young.
3. Not quite anything yet.
I was a flyleaf and she was suspended animation. We passed around a ball for thirty seconds, and really that was all it took.
It is interesting, they told me after the fact, what tot means in German.
If anyone has a time machine, please contact me yesterday.
You should repost that for Halloween.
I’ll cook up another one for Halloween!
Yes, very eerie, Millie, in a creepy good way!
Happy to give you chills!
I had to look it up, because I didn’t know. I felt sick, in a good way. Thanks for that.
Thanks for reading, Daniel. Seeing how English and German languages are both germanic, I wonder if linguistic scientists can explain this chilling connection.
Your style holds so much weight!
Thanks, Josiah!
I think i just got some chills…
Thank you Millie! Your writing is always an adventure and a joy to consume!
Welcome back to the blog-o-sphere, Adam, and thanks!
