Up On Goblin Hill

[upongoblinhill]

When a Coyote-faced Man at a roadside supper club steals your flesh, trapping you and your dog in a folkloric liminal Midwestern North America where no one knows you.

"And there's the dawn, poured out like wine

Along the dim horizon-line.

And from the city comes the chimes --

We have our heaven on earth -- sometimes!"

-Stephen St Vincent Benet, The City Revisited

Along the dim horizon-line.

And from the city comes the chimes --

We have our heaven on earth -- sometimes!

"On the highest steeps of Space he will have his dwelling-place,

In those far, terrific regions where the cold comes down like Death

Gleams the red glint of his pinions, smokes the vapor of his breath."

In the grottos of masonry and high up on the chimney stacks of Goblin Hill, Wisconsin, the rare Rosa Desiderium blooms in the color of deep longing, illuminated only by the wry face of the moon.

"With golden hand you built, you raised, alongside humankind redeemed,

A city wrought for hope and joy as none have ever dreamed."

I reached 3k followers on bluesky, a milestone as that is the amount of followers I had on X before I left. It took me 10 years to reach that number on X, on bluesky it took me 2 years with no algorithm interfering with my work. I consider it a small but important victory.

"There was a time in our distant past when forests, rivers, glens, and even singular trees possessed enormous importance to the people who resided there. Many cultures the world over held spirits of a place in high esteem, and some even held particular objects as being worthy of acquiring spirit. So too, does this phenomenon extend to the territory of these Midwestern United States. Notable among them you’ll find here are; the fearsome Meshipeshu, The dwindling Spirit of the Ogallala Aquifer, and the Wind Witches of November. These spirits are capable of walking a fine line between corporeal form and near-invisible presence, and there are few tools that can be regularly relied upon to lift these glamours— outside of a few particular charms that you will find within this Almanac." From the introduction to "Beyond The Fields We Know, An Almanac of Midwestern Prairie Spirits", written and illustrated from Up On Goblin Hill. “We have just begun to navigate a strange region; we must expect to encounter strange adventures, strange perils.” ― Arthur Machen, The Terror
