this morning #2030.

this morning, when i yanked the red velvet curtain aside, i really couldn’t believe my eyes. took a few quick steps back. confused. hiding behind it was an ornate door. it’s a sprawling house but still. not sure how i’d never noticed it there before. i grabbed for the knob & the door popped open on its own. not ominous AT ALL. that didn’t stop me from stepping inside though & before i knew it, i was wandering down an ill-lit hallway. bright light framed in an open door at the end. being the compliant moth that i am, i floated toward it. when i arrived, i just kept going. drifted past silent masked figures lined up on either side. eerie as fuck. i’d had enough but before i could turn around, they grabbed at me. shook me wide awake.
