The Room by Marius

When you enter the tidiness is all you can think about. Has the person living here got dust on his brain you begin to question yourself. The TV is on and from it a loud scream followed by a commentator’s eager voice fill your ear. ‘Sports,’ you begin to realize. In the kitchen everything is ship shape; the only thing missing is something to pour water with. The computer is on and something about a prison is showing! A tattooed man is apparently starring. The light in the bathroom is on and from it comes sweet tunes sung by a lady. Suddenly there is a change in the voice in the bathroom. There is a man talking. Ahhh, a radio, you realize. How stupid of me. The fireplace is lit and you see red flames playing. Not a lot of firewood is needed to keep this place warm. The resident isn’t in.

From the bedroom comes a cold draft………

(In response to the way some of the authors we’ve read describe rooms and houses.)
