1908.06 – DDOP.06 – Coils

Curly hair fragment as a texture background composition

Description:

#Audio. #Flashfic.  #Horror.  A piece where our narrator is definitely NOT the hero…

Excerpt:

I decide I must have it. Her hair. Her.

I learn her patterns. She works in an art gallery, wears black far too frequently. I understand that dark colors are less likely to detract from the art, but a deep green would set off her hair, and suit her pale coloring, so much more favorably.

  2. For obvious reasons the way he reads brings to mind Jack the Ripper. But it’s the way he draws it out… as the protagonist draws it out… that makes it more chillng in the end.
