"Desiree"
first published in Selcouth Magazine
I don't have many spoilers for this one. I think it'll be quite obvious the way the images were re-configured in my imagination to tell a story. If Desiree is the name of the mother, the princess, or the fish, is up to you...
& "Both Sides Now," "A Maid of Constant Sorrow," "Time Passes Slowly," "Crow on the Cradle," and "Cruel Mother," are referenced here from Collins' songbook.
& The closing number to this episode,"Send in the Clowns," is by Stephen Sondheim. If you are a Sondheim fan, see if you can spot the allusion to the original title of A Little Night Music...
