A bunch of tales I wanted to share with you

A tale I read

Piano by Edgar Kunz

A tale I heard

Actor Emma Stone on her Cruella de Vil laugh:

"They sent out this press box for the Rag & Bone X Cruella line and they sent me a jacket. I wasn't expecting this but I was at home the other night and I opened up the box. It had a sound box in it with my cackle from the movie and it scared the shit out of me! I genuinely jumped in the air at my own laugh coming out of a box. It was so scary because it was quiet in the house and I was terrified. Hearing my own voice come out of something was horrific."

A tale I saw

Salt Coast by Kae Tempest

A tale I wrote

The moon is a blue toenail.
Not really.
The moon is a fishy pig.
Not really.
The moon is an arrogant witness.
Not really.
The moon is a melted secret.
Not really.
The moon is a violent afternoon,
a miserable leaf, a dizzy bookshelf,
a wasted thought, a broken peanut,
an inconspicuous barnacle.
The moon is a dusty wizard,
a terrible phone call, a ghostly bucket.
The moon is an exhausted zebra,
a fast widow, an empty dog.
Not really.
