there was not even the slightest hint of star light.... and yet
I could see a bright light in the distant sky.
A feeling of intrigue swept over me, along with a knawing sense of forboding and apprehension.
Thinking I should investigate but everyone else is sleeping.
So, I go inside, collect up my trusty hound dog and my big flashlight, and head out in the direction of the light.... wondering what I might find. As I approach the end of my street,
the light disappeared and reappeared behind me.
This is odd I thought. This light seems to be following me, but how can that be if it originally seemed so far away. It's seems to be aware of my whereabouts.
