Le Singe







La sueur dégoulinait le long de la poitrine de Hal; il la sentit couler sur son front
comme une bruine huileuse. Les cymbales pesaient de leur métal froid contre
sa main et l'engourdissaient.

Vas-y, pensa-t-il, lugubre. Vas-y, je peux attendre toute la journée. Jusqu'à ce que
l'enfer tout entier soit gelé, s'il le faut.


Les cymbales s'écartèrent et s'immobilisèrent.
Hal entendit un faible clic! à l'intérieur du singe. Il releva la brosse et l'examina.
Quelques poils blancs avaient noirci, comme si on les avait flambés.
La mouche vrombissait et se cognait contre la vitre, à la recherche du froid soleil d'octobre qui semblait si proche.
Petey arriva en courant, la respiration rapide, les joues roses.
-J'en ai trouvé trois grosses, papa, je... Tout va bien, papa?
-ça va, répondit Hal. Apporte moi le sac.
Hal attira avec son pied la table basse qui se trouvait près du canapé, l'amena juste sous le rebord de la fenêtre et posa le sac dessus.Comme des lèvres il écarta ses bords et vit luire à l'intérieur les pierres que Petey avait ramassées. Du bout de la brosse il déséquilibra le singe. Celui-ci chancela un instant et tomba dans le sac. On entendi un faible ding! lorsque les cymbales heurtèrent l'une des pierres.
-P'pa? Papa? interrogea Petey l'air effrayé.
Hal se retourna vers lui. Il s'était passé quelque chose; quelque chose avait changé.
Mais quoi?
Alors, il suivit la direction du regard de Petey et compris. Le vrombissement de la mouche avait cessé.



Elle gisait morte sur le rebord de la fenêtre.

Road To Hell

Road To Hell




+++++++++++Je venais d'apprendre cette terrible nouvelle
+++++++++++que tout humain apprend un jour ou l'autre :
+++++++++++Ce que tu aimes, tu vas le perdre.

+++++++++++Ta vie entière sera rythmée par le deuil.
+++++++++++Et ce ne sera que le premier d'une série
+++++++++++dont tu n'imagines pas la longueur.

+++++++++++Deuil au sens fort, car tu ne récupereras rien, tu ne retrouveras rien.

+++++++++++Qu'est-ce que j'ai fait de mal?
+++++++++++Rien, ce n'est pas à cause de toi, c'est comme ça.

+++++++++++Si au moins j'avais fait quelque chose de mal, si au moins cette atrocité
+++++++++++était une punition! Mais non, c'est comme ça parce que c'est comme ça.
+++++++++++Que tu sois odieuse ou non n'y change rien , c'est la règle.

Burton




Vincent Malloy is seven years old,
He's always p
olite and does what he's told.

F
or a boy his age he's considerate and nice,
But
he wants to be just like Vincent Price.

He doesn
't mind living with his sister, dog and cat,
Thou
gh he'd rather share a home with spiders and bats.

There he coul
d reflect on the horrors he's invented,
And wand
er dark hallways alone and tormented.

Vincent is
nice when his aunt comes to see him,
But imagine
s dipping her in wax for his wax museum.

He lik
es to experiment on his dog Abacrombie,
In the ho
pes of creating a horrible zombie.

So he and his
horrible zombie dog,
Could go s
earching for victims in the London fog.

His thou
ghts aren't only of ghoulish crime,
He likes to p
aint and read to pass the time.

While other kid
s read books like Go Jane Go,
Vin
cent's favorite author is Edgar Allen Poe.

One n
ight while reading a gruesome tale,
He read a pa
ssage that made him turn pale.

S
uch horrible news he could not survive,
For his
beautiful wife had been buried alive.

He dug out
her grave to make sure she was dead,
Unaware tha
t her grave was his mother's flower bed.

His mot
her sent Vincent off to his room,
He knew he'd b
een banished to the tower of doom.

Where he was
sentenced to spend the rest of his life,
Alone wi
th a portrait of his beautiful wife.

While alon
e and insane, encased in his tomb,
Vincent's moth
er suddenly burst into the room.

"If you want to you can go outside and play.
It'
s sunny outside and a beautiful day."

Vincent t
ried to talk, but he just couldn't speak,
The ye
ars of isolation had made him quite weak.

So he
took out some paper, and scrawled with a pen,
"
I am possessed by this house, and can never leave it again."

Hi
s mother said, "You're not possessed, and you're not almost dead.
These games th
at you play are all in your head.

You're not Vi
ncent Price, you're Vincent Malloy.
You're not to
rmented, you're just a young boy."

"You're seve
n years old, and you're my son,
I want you to get outside and have some real fun."

Her anger no
w spent, she walked out through the hall,
While
Vincent backed slowly against the wall.

The roo
m started to sway, to shiver and creak.
His horr
id insanity had reached its peak.

He saw Abacro
mbie his zombie slave,
And heard
his wife call from beyond the grave.

She spoke
from her coffin, and made ghoulish demands.
Whil
e through cracking walls reached skeleton hands.

Every horror i
n his life that had crept through his dreams,
Sw
ept his mad laugh to terrified screams.
To escap
e the madness, he reached for the door,

So he a
nd his horrible zombie dog,
But
fell limp and lifeless down on the floor.

His
voice was soft and very slow,
As
he quoted The Raven from Edgar Allen Poe,

"And
my soul from out that shadow floating on the floor,
Shall be li
fted--Nevermore!"
