They were supposed to have set #sail, but fog hemmed them in. It was strange—the forecast was clear skies, yet she couldn’t see her dog leaning on her knee. Ralph growled as the mist swirled and an apparition solidified. “Passing through, no need for alarm.” He faded back to oblivion. #vss365

There would be a full moon tonight at high tide, and at the same time, a #hurricane was supposed to hit. People scurried, buying supplies, shoring up windows, and packing bags with sand. She painted her nails as the wind grew strong. It was the perfect time to dispose of the body. #vss365

A dark storm cloud above open fields, edged with silver sunlight. Rays fan upwards while lightning glows within and rain veils the horizon.

A short history of the clouds Cotton Candy. Mountains. A snail slowly leaving its house. Snoopy chasing a dragon. Don Quijote falling off Rosinante. My father turning his face to the sun. A hole through which my mother watches over me. #vss365 #cloud

It had been with her from birth—this #hunger she couldn’t satisfy. One day, she was surprised to see that there was a book in the mail. She read it again and again. Her friend asked, “Why don’t you go to the library?” Her eyes widened, and she knew her life would never be the same. #vss365
