Love and Horror

Horror and love He rented a room in Puerto Lemon to make love to a woman beautiful, but since both of them came from one of those hideous little towns along the coast of Norway they had to be discreet. From the darkness of the night and into the light, flew a wonderful insect, the color of gold the wonder being danced to music only the two could hear and they swayed in a circle of love. As we know, love can hurt, he reached out his arms and accidentally damaged a wing and the ethereal being fell to the ground and from cracks in the floorboard they came muscular ants, the destroyer of forbidden love The ants dragged the golden queen down a crack, and he was spared seeing them turn her into pieces before eating to the sound of the evening bells. He awoke the woman in his bed, she needed religious forgiveness, and he needed a cold beer.
