I read a book about architecture. It was filled with many beautiful pictures of spike-like buildings and box-shaped houses. Thin lines pointing to various parts of each structure connected to complex words like dormer, cupola, pilaster, and buttress. I didn't understand any of it. My eyes began to vibrate. A terrible and nameless fear crushed the hairless crown of my skull. I jammed the book into a storm drain and shuffled back to the forest very quickly.
Steve Gergley is the author of a bunch of books and a lot of weird writings of an indeterminate nature. He's also the editor of scaffold literary magazine.
