Sky Crying Strawberries: Fantasy
Apr. 11th, 2006 12:55 pmThe sky was crying strawberries the morning that she woke up to find herself without hands or feet. At first, she thought that she was just dreaming, but when she looked out the window and saw that it was crying strawberries, she knew that she was awake. The strawberries had never appeared before, but it was too weird for one of her dreams, which usually involved grocery lists, going into tests unprepared, and showing up and work without any clothes on. She didn't even like strawberries much; neither did she dislike them...at least until that moment. Forever after, she would associate the rain of strawberries with the loss of her hands and feet. She didn't figure out why she'd lost them until years later--most people took about that long to figure things out, and until then, anyone suggesting that she'd wanted to lose them would have lost a few teeth themselves.
