liquidnight:

Every time I look at electrical towers I remember a moment from a particularly chilly, overcast day during my childhood. I was so young at the time that it feels much like a dream to me now, but I’ve no doubt that it did happen. I was riding in a car with my aunt down a long wintry road. The sky was heavy with grey clouds and the surrounding landscape was a yellow expanse of overgrown grassy fields and the occasional skeleton of a dormant tree. I was looking out the window as we drove past the familiar sight of a seemingly endless row of enormous electrical towers when my aunt leaned over and whispered a secret into my ear. She told me that, as soon as you passed them, each tower would spring to life and remain that way as long as your back was turned. She also told me that sometimes they would try to chase you, but could never catch up as long as you kept turning around. I was both frightened and fascinated. From them on, whenever I saw electrical towers I would wonder what sorts of creatures each one could turn into. There were so many possibilities. I couldn’t help but believe her. And I think I still do.
