Echo Room

[Delta40]

Sit in this room
like a good child
good child

See the sign?
the sign
NO SHOUTING
shouting
Nurse will be back
back, back

No!
No! no
Sorry, I mean wait
wait
Comeback!
Comeback! back!

The well oiled key
turns in the lock
click, click

Fists lose feeling
from punching the door
thud, thud

Alright!
right! right!
I'll wait.
wait, wait
but only because
you asked me to.
asked me, asked me

I love the mischief of this, the inventive use of echolalia.

[Delta40]

ooh never heard of echolalia!

Is this a prisoner of Litnet?

I think this goes beyond mischief... there's some real horror here for this child, and even if it's a game, or manipulative discipline on Nurse's part, I think the child is unaware of that.

BTW, you must enlighten me: what are these avatar paintings you're uploading? They're disturbingly real. One of those things you don't want to look at but stare at anyway (like a car accident, or perhaps a hairy mole).

obese art. I discovered it last night. I rather like them. They're so compelling.
