The Trees Have Eyes
Every time I stand at my kitchen sink, this is the view that stares back at me.
My sister sent me this tree face (which originally had a nose and mouth complete with stuck out tongue) for Christmas. She sent it to my neighbor, had my husband pick it up, and stealthily attach it to the tree right out side my kitchen window on X-mas eve.
Christmas morning the horror was evident, as I screamed upon seeing it.
As the months have passed the nose has made itself a home on a stray nail next to the front door (which is a picture in itself!)and the mouth/tongue are floating around the house somewhere...
All that is left are the eyes! The EYES! Staring me down every time I take to the sink! Even the tree has retaliated by oozing sap from the left eye. It's appearance, that of crying, mocking me. The "eye lids" are amazingly detailed to look like the bark of the tree, so much so, that one might believe they just grew there.
Here, I need to thank my sister for her thoughtfulness. And I do! But, damn, if you were trying to give me a complex, then success is yours!
CREEEPY!!!!!!!!
