“And I guess that’s all that happened before I came here” – The Man in the Woods by Shirley Jackson

One thought on “And I guess that’s all that happened before I came here

  1. Okay, it isn’t just that it’s a fine image – but now I have an irrational desire to read Shirley Jackson. Again.

    I like the image, too. It suggests many things –

    Right now to me it’s saying that someone was here – briefly – perhaps in a hurry – leaving behind their cup because life intervened and suddenly yanked them away from a quiet contemplative moment to deal with some crisis where cups and sips weren’t tolerated.
