✦ WHAT IT IS

The bundle unfurls into a little roadside shrine — the cloth spread as a mat, the candle stood upright, petals ringed around the edge, the portrait propped to watch. For a breath it burns bright enough to carry a whole cluster across.

A moment later it fades back into the yard. It was never meant to stay; it was meant to open a door.
