Morph

Imagine this: Someone, out of the blue, calls you a bitch.  Suddenly, you morph into a stark raving mad giant pit bull bitch!  Now you are barking and biting the hell out of that person.

Loretta was a sensitive woman who loved jewelry and antiques.  She also had one pet peeve: she hated the word bitch.  After she bought a beautiful butterfly brooch at an estate sale, she had an overwhelming feeling that good luck was coming her way.  And, it did.  

There was a new source of power growing within her.  Even with her newfound feeling of empowerment and good fortune, hearing the word, bitch, made her cringe. Then she started having black outs and finding curious clues on her clothes, like blood.

Suddenly, the news was filled with stories about wild dogs or coyotes killing men in the Hollywood Canyons. “What was going on,”  She asked herself.  To find out, she had to dig up the history of her beautiful butterfly brooch.

Can hate speech conjure up evil? Amulets, ghosts, and payback, Morph is an entertaining tale about hate speech and the spirits it conjures up. Seance, anyone?
