8220;You have brought Laura’s ashes? 8220;Yes,” he said, handing the urn to the witch. She lifted the lid, peered into the receptacle, then turned her stern gaze towards him. 8220;I must ask you to reassure me one last time – you are. She was a pure-hearted woman? 8220;She was the kindest person I have ever met,” he said, and the witch’s glare softened as she saw the love in the bereaved man’s countenance. She sighed and put down the urn. A flash of purple light went off in the living room to an accompan...

On Christmas Day 1914 a spontaneous break in hostilities, the Christmas Truce. Occurred between the German and English soldiers fighting on the Western Front. Heat, hot and noise. Dawn brought a thin frost and crisp blue-pink skies. In the trenches, Adams awoke and noticed the way the soil in the walls lay in bands. Strata, the Commander had named them. It was a football. Suspiciously, at first, they eyed it, caught others doing the same. The hope. The soaring hope! Dedicated by a respectful stranger to ...

Georgie, she said in a quiet low singsong that was either Scottish or Manx. She offered her hand. Her overalls, though they were white and spotlessly clean, stank roundly of sheep, unpleasant, but without the spiky acid highs of, say, a Roquefort cheese. I added. She studied my pass, looked up at me. 8220;Interesting,” she said. Do you always talk like that? I don’t think so, I said. Oh good, she said. She smiled brightly. I smiled back. She said Do you have a job? I do, I said. And what do you do? Her l...

She stood across the compound. I brought cups of the calorific tea they served to the children and placed them next to her at her feet. On the surface, a scatter graph of buttermilk formed star-shaped arabesques. Are you okay, Miremba? I heard myself ask. And Could we talk? She might have blinked a little. Miremba, I said. There are reports I must discuss with you. I can make arrangements for you both to ride with us. We can go to safety. Feed You can leave a response. From your own site. Wonderful stuff...

Laying on of Hands. I made tea, spooning torn leaves from a tin into a chipped pot. Bronwyn would join me soon, serious after sleep; she would take her mug and curl herself into the cave of her favourite chair, clinging to the vistas of sleep, battling the entropy of office life. I knew not to talk until she was ready. I felt my eyes smile, and closed them to keep her image intact. She is like light. Even a stretch is poetry. They discovered it before me. Not the secret of my creativity, but another ...

When the rain woke her at 4.13 she had been asleep for less than an hour. She lay still beneath the cover listening to the steady patter of raindrops. With her head turned this way her body felt curiously heavy, unresponsive. She opened her eyes. The world would soon grow light; darkness would thin and night retreat with swags of sumptuous sky in tow. Why keep on doing this? She wondered. Why won’t you sleep? It’s been weeks. In the weeks since, she had become a spectator of sorts, disjointed, watching t...
