HAPPENING leaked excerpt from new novel from P Anonymous Mon Dec 4 18:20:42 2017 No.10355814 [Reply] [Original]

it's been making the rounds on a few forums.

"Rain pelted the window, dotting its outer coating in bulbous vacuoles that stretch light into peculiar contortions, pencils of spheres refracting the orthogonal tapestries of concrete into projections alien, those that transfer the mind to foreign realities mitigated by light beyond the latticed glass that Hayuri glares at from her desk. Logging in extra hours, she sat after the hustle of feet battered the carpets, the oscillating office lights showing their dire need for a change, replacement, to rectify the Tokyo dirge with light. Dusk brought its violet exploding across the horizon, pelting the dark clouds with the last spectacles until a night of feverish comforts, padded chairs, blue glows to the face, furtive, shame-inducing consumption of carnal sights through screens all gives to a day renewed to the fast frequency of this now benign feeling of time folding on itself, connecting like plasmic sinew, together, entrapping her in some astral caul, where ambivalence is cultivated like tobacco, and days just seem an unabated sequence of day/night, white/black, pill capsules sticking to dry morning lips and the hum of the Mita Line's train the only maternal comfort."
