Upside Down and Other Stories Julia T Lye

"I close my eyes.
I don't need to look."

"The night is enticing. The darkness, a friendly presence. My senses are on full alert. I am completely aware of my surround-ings yet unable to locate the answer. I am all ears but cannot hear any solution. Seeing the world from upside down does not let me see a way out."
-excerpt from Upside Down by Chantal Finn-Losier
