Spiritually Convenient Landline

[djackmanson]

We look at a display in a shop. It is magnificently garish. The colour pink leaps out at us, a defence against those who only love dullness and drabness. The walls are pink, the shelves on the wall to our right are pink, the cylindrical display pedestal right in front of us is pink. On a far wall, above a cabinet fridge, the words "Spiritual Convenience" are painted. On the shelves to our right are dozens of open compartments, each containing a different mineral.


On the pink pedestal is a display, a riot of items that could be used for fun or for rituals that focus one's intent. On top of a narrow black container with 18 squarish compartments is a pink hair dryer, like one sat under in a old-fashioned hairdresser's. Other items are displayed on the top of the pedestal. There are star sprinkles, essential and scented oils, various small minerals, holographic stickers, tubs of "wish powder" and so on. In the front and middle of the display, on a round lavender-coloured mat is a peach-shaded old landline telephone with a rotary dial. In the centre of the dial, a small sign reads "Thank you for witching with us".
