She was a being who heard a heavy door clang shut on her life. I did not hear such a door clang so distinctly shut in my own, but I continually thought it might.

Now I have a peacock..in my hands ÒwÓ (I printed other paper dolls too, but for now I only made them from Peacock. This was the only model of hers that I found too simple.)

A Train of Peas

When Peacock was very young, he’d assembled himself a train out of peas. Everyone around him had these majestic tails—even the turkeys on the next farm over.

As the years went by, his friends evolved: the eyes on their trains were exchanged for screens, their meat was swapped out for metal, and their quills came to serve as antennas that only received a signal when they pointed at the sky, allowing the nights to be quiet. Some of those antennas ended in blasters, ready to shoot in every direction.

Peacock still dreamed of his own tail, but in the current climate, no one would spend time on something as frivolous as a decorative source of personal euphoria. He’d have to come up with a solution himself.

He scratched and he tore, he cut and he painted, and finally he was ready. Without a long tail to bear him down, he was much lighter and could fly higher than any of his friends. Now, a large banner trailed behind him in the sky, sending a message to all parties, both directly and through the screens shared by all the other peacocks in the world. It might be that no one had ever been awed by his tail of peas, but they’d definitely be impressed if he were able to bring peace.

Timing myself making a generic Ketubah. So far without including designing the piece or picking the paper it's been about four hours and I've barely started it feels like. I guess I should charge a lot of money for these?
