    Intricacies of the Mind

    Something arrives in the village of Marrow through the plumbing, and it is unfailingly polite. It pours the tea. It tells you not to mind the key. There is no blood anywhere in this poem and nobody dies — the village simply stops being several people and becomes one. Mind the gurgle in the night.

    Dark Corners of the Mind

    Without the dark, no candle earns its name. An argument that the devil is load-bearing — not evil as a villain, but evil as the friction a climbing thing requires. Set, Ahriman, Tiamat, Loki, and the heretics burned for knowledge's sake. Read by a gargoyle, who has been outside for six hundred years and has had time to think about it.

    Recesses of the Mind

    A retelling of Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart in which the thing under the floorboards is a phone. A boy tells his parents he lost it, scuffing it on the driveway first so it will look dropped. His mother hugs him. Would a crazy person have gotten the hug? Read by a vampire, who has watched a great many people be undone by an appetite they refused to give up.
