Featured Monologue – Dragonfly Whispers
FLORA: It was ah, a creaking noise, footsteps…like dragonfly whispers…heard them walking back and forth all morning, listening…they listen to us, listen to everything…I almost went into the shed to get your hammer because I wanted to give them a great big BOP on the head.
