Craig Cornish Contest

Apparitions behind every mottled rock. Shaded countenance surreptitious like shadows. Fractured slivers and fragments boast - On wall, ceiling and floor. Splattered drop cloth - reflective dread. Fun house of Zeus, The zigs and zags - Thundering fakes, illuminated lies. She claws her face. Crags of wilderness. Deep etched drama. Whirlwind’s not glue. One face. One mirror. Truth
