Amassing materials, foraging food, preparing for winter. As the dreary weather begins, I cogitate upon the futility of survival: what is the purpose of it? Maybe it's for all those who fell.

But then... then the wolves come.]]> 2017-04-30 23:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lisasmith1/b080d6b7bv9m/wish/169091402 https://padlet.com/lisasmith1/b080d6b7bv9m/wish/169091421 She screamed…..

A cough as if they are clearing their throat speak seems as loud a thunder, as I’m fearfully shaking

I walked gently towards my bedroom door. Time never felt so slow. The thuds of the unknown made my spine tingle. Every slightest movement made my stomach rumble. I pull the door handle.
