THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND! THANKS FOR HANGING AROUND! AND THANKS FOR VISITING ME FROM TIME TO TIME! FROM YOUR FRIEND ON THE DARKER SIDE OF LIFE … HAVE A GREAT AND TWISTED DAY! -CHRIS M. KINNEY
Is there someone there? Is there someone there? Come talk to us tonight. We’re asking for the dead to speak. It’s only us, my wife and me. Come tell us how you died.
The oracle moved about the board, A figure-eight reply. The oracle started slowing down, then stopped … above the Y.
Tell us more; tell us more, spirit sailing free. Tell us how you died tonight. Tell us when you died tonight. Tell us what brings you here tonight. Keep spelling it for me.
The figure eight continues, and around the board it moves. It’s slowing down, it’s slowing down. Come, spirit, talk to me right now. Tell us tonight, because we want to know … Then the oracle stopped on the letter O.
You’re coming in so very clear, Now tell us why you’re roaming here, on this dark and stormy night. Speak to me, speak to me, Travel through this board to me. Tell us why you sleep tonight beneath your resting tomb. Speak to me, speak to me, speak to me now. Then the oracle stopped on the U.
Y-O-U, Y-O-U, this isn’t making sense. You spelled out YOU is this what you meant to do? Then the oracle stopped on YES. My hands were sweating. My knees were shaking. My wife had glanced up, hesitating, While I just sat there, concentrating, Recalling what I knew. This cannot be. This cannot be. Then the oracle spelled out S-U-E.
Welcome to an inner world I call my nasty place. A place that keeps me ticking, Keeps me living, Just beyond a thinking face.
When I started writing fiction, The fiction led to an addiction. Now I roost inside the shadows of a nasty place I call my home.
Step right up, my twisted friend, and look inside my mind. Brush away the spiders and their cobwebs and their meal flies Just to get a peek of what it is I see from the darker side of life.
My stories bring addiction. So remember, they’re only fiction, Or my nasty place will live in you, A place you’ll call your own.
