Fermented Fables

Posted on by Reena Saxena

The canvas has not moved, but the picture has changed.

I’m not one to be tricked by visual illusions, but Earnest Easel insists it is the Truth.

The Creative Canvas is an Empath that captures colours and shapes from the surroundings and reflects them.

Tonight is the night of judgment, as Brewing Bucket manufactures a hitherto unseen shade of paint, to splash out at midnight and paint the canvas like it’s never been before.

Earnest Easel writhes in agony in an attempt to escape, but falls at an angle that breaks a leg and makes running difficult.

I swear I saw a figure looming large in the sky, without hands and feet, but a power centre in its head, ducking Creative Canvas till it falls silent.
