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.
