One Speaks

Cthulhu Cthursday: The Dream-Quest of Pooh Corner

Posted by John Brownlee

winniethepooh.jpgThe button-eyed bear of very little brain stares uncomprehending upon the Eldritch Horrors from beyond the gulf of space:

“Oh, bother,” said Pooh, as the unclean emanations of the Old Ones manifested as squamous and rugose tentacles that were of no earthly color…

And!

I am forced into speech because Rabbit and other Organdized People have refused to follow my advice without knowing why. I am a Bear of Very Little Brain, and so it is altogether against my will that I tell my reasons for opposing this contemplated Expotition to the East Pole – with its vast Woozle hunt and its wholesale boring and excavation of Heffalump Traps. And I am the more reluctant because my warning may be in vain…

…”It’s All Right,” said Eeyore, looking into the dark waters again. “This Sort of Thing was Bound to Happen. Just a question of the Stars being Right, I suppose.”

“I mean,” he continued, as the surface of the water was torn asunder and a mass of hideous, churning flesh rose into view, “what else was I supposed to Expect?”

This actually seems like a fairly healthy mash-up genre. Brilliant. Forget the Tao of Pooh: I want Edward Bear to explain me the unholy tenets of the Necronomicon Ex Mortis.

IS THERE BUT ONE VOICE?

    Can I ask where you got the photograph? It looks rather like a picture my grandmother used to have on her wall and I was wondering if it was the same one.
