Post-Pandemonium
Unfixed handbills ghosting through the depopulated streets. In the air, the mixed scent of cotton candy and vomitus. On the dead-grassed commons, a long, lone strip of sawdust, blood-speckled.
A formerly-green town left brown and forlorn. And no sign of the party responsible, save for the line of ashen puffs rising above the leafless treetops of the outlying woods--and the unlikely sound of calliope music dopplering off into the October night.
Something wicked that way goes.

Please note: Disagreement is inevitable; disparagement is intolerable. You can differ from someone else's opinion without having to resort to an attack on that person (any improper/insulting commentary will be deleted from this blog). So please remember to show some civility to your M.R. brethren. Thanks--Joe.
