The White Lady

neglected, and stained. As she hung up the crisp white linins, she thought about the trip she took to the grocery store the previous day. The trip was like a woody nightshade vine, bittersweet.

talked for so long, we forgot what we were here for. “Ah, the coronation”, I suddenly remembered. We all took our seats, patiently awaiting our sovereign. It was only a short few seconds until Macbeth violently thrusted his way through the doors. The voices silenced and not a squeak was heard. His face was disapproving.
