SLUGGERA Story by Joe MiltonSHORT. FANTASY.SLUGGER … Slugger was the most wretched
of abandoned ships.
Its interior shell
was laced with mildew.
Screeches of painful
malady seemed to ricochet throughout its innermost stomach and guts.
There lay a hidden
secret. A rush of moist air filled a dark cabin.
The room had remained
unlit for centuries. Yet now, all of a
sudden, impressions of intense bright colours beamed upon a crooked chair. A
dog shape emerged " as if it had simply materialized through nothing but mere
rainbow light.
The dog had coal fur,
a diagonally tilted head and a rose silk tongue hanging from its lips. © 2012 Joe Milton
