She is hungry today (Trigger Warning)

She is hungry today.

Her skirts are swirling, blue green, frills of lace.

Sometimes she appears angry and sometimes calm, always deceiving.

She spots the boy, red jumper, blue shorts, running, running.

But he can never escape her once she has decided.

She increases her speed, watching watching.

For a moment it seems as if he will break free.

But she reaches out with her icy white fingers and captures him.

Within seconds he is gone, no red against the blue green and white.

The man is screaming, running, running

Tears pouring down his face.

It’s too late, the boy will never be seen again in this world.

Nothing can escape once she has made up her mind.

Admire her.

Fear her.

Respect her.

Always.

She is hungry today. Julie Wickens.
