“Westmorland-Upon-Sea is a place where mountain and sea meet as if by accident, where geological time was eroded in an instant by a natural cataclysm. So abrupt is their meeting there can be only one plausible explanation: long ago, a giant from the deep emerged from a fading Niflheim and with a single bite removed the whole peninsula.”
Westmorland-Upon-Sea, from Tall Trees Short Stories Vol20 (released 30th June 2020)
I wondered, lonely as a thorn
That clings on high o’er cliff and hill,
When upon an early morn,
I spied a flock of those who kill;
Across the prairie, deprived of trees,
Roving and slaying in the breeze.
