Over the past month or so, my girlfriend and I have noticed a strange THING hanging in a tree by my house. It's not very noticeable - until you notice it. Then, you can't seem to drive past it without saying "WOW, LOOK AT THAT THING IN THE TREE! Oddly enough, my lady and I have started referring to it as HIM - because we're creepy that way.
Aside from calling it HIM, we don't have a name for it yet. It's just swinging in the breeze and it looks like it's been there for a good long time. I wonder how it got there. I wonder if it really is a HIM? I live in an area where something like that shouldn't be found. It's a nice quiet neighborhood nestled away under a mountain - but there are people who've been there longer than my neighbors, and they seem to be quite capable of doing something like this.
Yes, it was probably that people who've been here first. They must have gotten a hold of a person who they thought was stealing a horse and decided to put them in a burlap sack and tie 'em to a tree. I'm sure the man called out to try and reach help, there there was no way for that. Back in that time, nobody civilized lived around there. Too bad, Mister.
And here we are - a hundred years (or so) later. My girlfriend and I are noticing it and trying to shed light onto who is in the sack. We'll keep referring to it as HIM until somebody finally has the balls to cut it down and make that grim discovery on their own. Do you want to be the one? |
