It was truly wonderful, wasn't it?
All my creations recapturing my imagination, pursuing me like the Monster pursued Frankenstein across frozen floes.
All my fears riding to meet my giddy challenge, and sending me headlong across the bridge from October to November, like a headless Hessian soldier's flaming gourd to the back of my noggin -- beautiful, painful, spirited, brief, and final.
It was just wonderful.
Off now to dream black and orange dreams, with a real breeze blowing real leaves against my real window, and the warming sound of every voice that haunted my home tonight, still in my ears -- a last, thin-wick'd candle flickering in one last jack o'lantern.
Happy Hallowe'en.
Good night.
