Why not Canadia? Why yes Field Mouse.
Post number 67
Something. Hit me. Today.
A thought. Bubbled.
Up. And Burst.
Sending ripples across my memory lake.
CORN DOLLIES - MURDEROUS CORN DOLLIES - AND MICE
All I remember is a story, or animation, of a community of mice that have the children make corn dollies perhaps for harvest or festival reasons, or for pure self-entertainment. Somehow there is a mysterious murder of a mouse, by strangulation, with anyone being the possible suspect. However, it was the CORN DOLL. It had magically come alive with murderous intent - perhaps even under a voodoo spell - and had strangled the poor mouse with his empty, noose like head.
And that's all I remember.
And the bubbles subside. The ripples grow few and large until the memory lake is calm, the surface a smooth as glass.
Until another Bubble. Rises. Like a small, transclucent balloon, once again, to the surface of the Memory Lake.
