The Caged Bat Sings
The darkness is never true darkness. It is never what we once knew. The bright lights just beyond our tiny exhibit, this small, damp mockery of a cave, shine in our small, beady eyes, blinding us. The quiet stillness of our old cave is gone, replaced with loudness and movement and constant sounds, so many sounds, everywhere and all the time. There are no creatures besides us, not here. They are also prisoners, no doubt, locked away from us in more of these cramped, miserable, false versions of our home.

The Unrivaled Art in “Goodnight Punpun”
I recently revisited one of my favorite book series of all time, Goodnight Punpun. And it was phenomenal. Goodnight Punpun is a very important series to me. Despite how dark and desolate the series is, it actually really helped me overcome a very hard time in my life. It’s one of those literary experiences that leaves you unable to do anything but feel, for better or worse, and I really appreciated its brutal humanity. It helped me come to terms with some of the trauma I was dealing with in my own life at the time I read it. It drove me to take action against my actively negative emotions and outlook on the world around me.

Mason’s Closet
Mason’s closet was little more than an old, dusty relic. It was the sort of relic unbecoming of a well-off middle class Texan family, according to Mama. She absolutely hated the thing. She hated it for reasons Mason could not even begin to understand. It was just a hunk of wood, after all.
