I went for a walk alone in the woods today just before dusk. Alone with my thoughts but the unsettling feeling that something was watching me. When I turned I always saw these little lights drifting on the air currents. I assumed were fireflies, but it’s not the right time of year for fireflies.
I wanted to check them out but the closer I got to them, the more uneasy I felt. Part of the ground moved as if something was just under the cluttering of leaves but it was enough to make be stop and hurry home. I’m sure I was just being silly, but I can still see the lights twinkling by the back-gate. Whatever it is, I don’t think it can come into the yard.
