I just wanted to go for a normal walk…
Crooked Walk
I just wanted to go for a normal walk. With buildings passing by me, no destination in mind. Just aimless and free. Unlike my day to day bound by schedules. Schedules I didn’t want in the first place but I have to live with if I want a salary.
My heels clacked onto the ground as I looked around the world around me. All these tall buildings with no chance of me ever entering them. Most of them are the same anyways, whatever.
Whats not the same is the ground. Shaking violently making me lose my balance. Landing butt first, everybody was panicking running past me.
I was almost stepped on if it weren’t for them falling into a crack opening and stopping right at my toes.
“Fuck!” I say dragging myself away and crawling up to get the fuck out of here. The heels were a problem so I kicked them away into other holes opening up.
All around me people were screaming and buildings were beginning to fall apart.
“Help! Please!” I hear someone scream with their hands grabbing onto the edge of a hole. Looking down its a young girl, maybe 15.
It sucks so much to have a conscience. It makes you do things like holding out your hand to pull a stranger out. Then you end up falling into the hole with her as the the crack grew bigger.
Karma or genuine bad luck I don’t know. I’m not even strong enough to do one push up what makes me think I can pull out another human being?!
The fall was tragic. Us screaming and crying at the top of our lungs. Me still trying to be a good person, I held the girl’s hand althroughout. Is dying better when you have someone with you?
Then we land into…
Water?
No, its too thick like gel.
Gel? Is gel a naturally forming substance?
Blinking away the gel-like substance away from my eyes, I realize I was in a whole new world. It had people stuck on red walls the color of raw clay. It had pink and blue crystals all around the area. And this gel like substance was translucent, almost glowing.
The positive is that I’m still alive and so is the girl.
Yet now we’re being looked down by a creature with scales and blue skin. Eyes the size of saucers, almost threatening.
God, just kill me already what in the fantasyland is this?!
