Time for the bi-weekly flash writing!

You’ve seen the posts every other week, so you know the deal.  Write
something (poetry, flash fiction, whatever) under 1500 words based on
the prompt (see below).  Post it at https://obsidianflash.com/forum 
(click the forum button and register; it should be mostly painless).  
That means that your work hasn’t been "previously published".

The deadline is midnight tomorrow (2/17/2018), and critiques 24 hours after that.

You can see the prompt at https://imgur.com/a/sb8cG .  Fair warning: it’s definitely aimed at horror writers and might be disturbing.  (Though I would be delighted if someone did something other than horror with it!)
