This is the story of a strange phenomena. It was a lonely phenomena that kept happening in all the wrong places to all the wrong people, so naturally it was feared. But you shouldn’t blame it, truly. Its intentions were the right ones, and there’s nothing wrong with trying to make the wrong places and wrong people right, eh?
So, how did this lonely phenomena present itself to the world? Well, in the only way it knew how. It was a presence in a room—the darker the better. It’d sneak up to the wrong persons and whisper the right things, right into their ears. Yes, the right things. Right into their ears. No wonder they shat blue lights! Anyone would. And as they shat themselves, the dark room would become lighter and bluer so that there was no darkness left at all.
The lonely phenomena thought it was doing a good thing, but when the room became well lit, the people it had whispered to would see that there was nothing there, and shit themselves even more. They’d freak out, maybe even cry a bit, and run screaming from the room. And so it was that everything became wronger. Wronger and wronger. So wrong, in fact, that the lonely phenomena eventually gave up and stepped off a very tall building one day.
No one has had anything scary—or even a little untoward—happen to them since.

You mean to say that the damned voice that said to me to go for the hot girl and resulted in that margherita stain on my white shirt was this guy!…or entity? I am satisfied with the climax then.

Is this how to treat loneliness by scaring the hell out of the mind from its unrealistic hold?

Now I’m wondering how many other phenomenas (phenomenons?) never find the right ears. Maybe left ears would be more receptive?

Left ears might be the right ears indeed… erm… correct ears. Golly, this is confusing! 😉

I don’t know. I think a thing that is harder to find becomes all the more precious, all the more a creator of that bliss we all chase. Too much of anything is bad for the same reason. I mean, like in your piece, too much wonder is indistinguishable from fear. Like too much water, even, can be a toxin to us. And no problem. You guys kill it!
