No Cameras Allowed


Jacob liked to observe things and take photos. He was so good at them that he became a professional photographer. If it exists, there’s high chance he has a picture of it on his camera. He cherished his camera more than anything and that made him sort of a loner. One day Jacob heard of some new archaeological finds being taken to a local museum. It was his chance to get photos of them. He packed his things and left for the place. There were so many amazing ancient artworks on display but one caught his eye. It was called the “Dum tu dormies”. Jacob stepped up to it to take a photo but was saddened to see that the warning “No Cameras Allowed” was placed near it. John looked around, disregarded the warning and took the photo anyway. His camera seemed to malfunction a bit after the picture loaded. He had no time to fully inspect the photo so he went home. Jacob’s camera was mighty expensive when he bought it so he takes extra care when handling it. He keeps it in a locker under his bed secured with a very obscure pin. He got home, took care of some things, and safely kept his camera in the locker and went to sleep.
Jacob woke up and was ready to inspect the photo he took. Something was wrong, there was a new photo. He opened it up and his expression turned to one of shock and horror for it was a photo of him – sleeping.

Pipe Issues

As Melinda put on the shower, the water slowly turned red. She gasped and got out of the bathroom. She went to get a drink of water from the sink and the water also turned red. Now Melinda was very worried and scared. She picked up her phone and had seen a missed call from her therapist, she dismissed it and proceeded to call the plumber. He arrived and she told him the entire ordeal. He said the pipes might have some issues. They then proceeded to the tank where the water was stored. The plumber moved to take a look into the tank and gasped with fear. Suddenly and without warning, he was beaten to a pulp, his head smashed, and thrown into the tank landing on top of another body. Melinda looked in the tank and said - "So that's why it's red, I really should stop forgetting where I dump bodies"

Clocks

I hate clocks, always have, They're everywhere marking time as it passes. Two arms and two halves, Woe betide he who time's laws trespasses. I hate clocks, always will, Reminding me of how little time is left. With its ticks and tocks so eerily shrill, The transience of life I never forget. One day when I was in the hillside, Living life like time had stopped. I saw a house and peered inside, And the madness I saw can not be topped. Clocks on every wall, Clocks with bells and clocks with doors. Clocks big and clocks small, Clocks that made my weary eyes sore. I realized time had not stood still, The clocks made it eerily clear. My hope and joy time sought to kill, As it has done year to year. I ran face first into a wall, Hoping to conquer time and end my misery. All went black as I began to fall, At least there's no time in eternity.
