’Approach to the Cabin.’
We found that the cabin was known to people in the area - visitors and locals alike. They were intrigued as to what was inside - within this unknown space fantastical and wonderful things could be imagined. The cabin had a dreamlike quality full of potential and imaginings.
I can take you. I’ve always wanted to see what’s inside, I’ve never seen it.
I know the way but getting inside is another matter.
I just haven’t been inside, but I know everything about it.
I imagine there’s water, running water, some way of cooking?
I imagine there’s a library of beautiful and unimaginable books inside.
I imagine there’s carvings carved by every passer by, every acolyte, every visitor.
They will line the walls inside.
Oh inside.
I imagine it’s unimaginable.
A place to step out of the cold, a spot to quell the madness.
It’s a steep hill, mind........................................................
