This Is Me

100 Word Fiction

Lou Ruvo Center For Brain Health Cleveland Clinic
Las Vegas NV

We come out at night. Mostly because people stare too much during the day. We frighten them, but we’re usually more scared than they are. The night cloaks us, protects us. People fear what they don’t understand. They think we’re the result of some evil scientific experiment for all I know. Or care. But we’re just like them, only with a genetic mutation that the doctors are trying to understand. It might help if the facility where we’re housed didn’t look like it was melting from the inside out. The architect’s sick joke. Like the one God played on us.

    Great story. Excellent photo. Frank Gerhy’s brain health clinic might just drive people crazy. Architects love his work. I’m so so about it. It is a structural wonder.

      Thank you! I really prefer the Disney Concert Hall in california. This always looks like a miniature copy, to me.

        We saw his Gugenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain. We didn’t get to go inside, but it’s similar to the other buildings. Gerhy’s trademark style.

      Thanaks, Mobius. What a great idea. I’m going to go contact Tim Burton now. See what he says. 🙂 If he agrees, you get a finders fee. 😂
