To be a child is to be by definition, dependent on others, at their mercy, and most of the time, that is what a child receives. But some people have no mercy. Here, there is only torment and fear, either now or later, take your pick. Chilling, terrifying, really, and took me back to some nightmares of my own.hedgewitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13090696134322515899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-14402023427433443872016-01-31T12:39:24.503-05:002016-01-31T12:39:24.503-05:00I love the phrase "vaguely Hispanic." I ...I love the phrase "vaguely Hispanic." I don't know why it makes me smile so. Perhaps because I'm from San Antonio.<br /><br />This is me, "trying to be helpful" --- it should say "late '40s or early '50s model" up above.<br /><br />What clever language. It describes the car, but it may also give us more info about how the woman looks. "Well out of date" may do the same. She's travelling with someone, but he's not her date.<br /><br />Did you mean "in a red dress," or do you like it as it is?<br /><br />Beware the woman with high cheekbones. Oh, now I wonder if this might suggest that she's high on whatever's in her cheek.✿https://www.blogger.com/profile/01044032159371976375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-32993136741403868902016-01-31T12:36:16.321-05:002016-01-31T12:36:16.321-05:00"Shiny as a snake" is such a great phras..."Shiny as a snake" is such a great phrase...Sioux Roslawskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-27638063425333159952016-01-31T11:58:37.224-05:002016-01-31T11:58:37.224-05:00The monsters under our beds is what created these ...The monsters under our beds is what created these dreams...
