the year penelope hoped for a comet she got a flashlight thrown at her by an angry man who had broken into her flat in search of his terracotta frog (which was given to moonlighting as a flute.) he woke her up when he stumbled into the kiddiepool filled with cherry soda that penelope kept in her living room for ‘the bitter days’ she screamed and he sticky and wet threw his flashlight in frustration. penelope, still drowsy from her rems thought her wish had come true and prepared herself for the warm licks of the fireball. she got a concussion instead.
