Whoa was that great. Surreal and haunting. Emotionally powerful, vivid yet so dreamlike. I really loved it. As the father to a nine year old boy this felt just like a nightmare I might have.

A truly exceptional piece of writing, Umby.

So very imaginative and creative and creepy as hell. A deep exploration of the power of loss and the conflict between the desire to protect and the anxiety of having to face our own fears set on a bleak landscape of dark carnivals and desolate towns. It reminded me a bit of Bradbury with Twilight Zone undertones but the originality of the whole thing was totally Umby.

Excellent work my friend.
