Minutiae

Two dolls in love in a child’s room. In the dark, they cuddle while the child is asleep. They pace about the dollhouse discussing the cruel child and the torturous things it does. We’ve nothing but plastic bread to eat, they complain. All of the books are blank. They agree they must escape soon, for their love is too great to allow the child to manipulate them. There is a Great Garage Sale planned somewhere in the future, but they have little idea when, and more importantly: why.
