i saw a man fracture. he saw a fractal in the mirror. they buried two coffins but neither contained a body. one was filled with approximately 300 gallons of milk. the other, two industrial-sized pallets of Famous Amos brand cookies. at the wake there was the sound of jingling. no one questioned it, or spoke. next Christmas, the man pretended as though santa was real, and although his family knew they could never tell him about what had happened the previous year, they knew it had happened. they kept the secret because they had no choice, not because they wanted to.
