...it has come to me...self awareness...i am a foot by foot square of
linoleum on the floor of a large metropolitan toy store...i am at the corner of the barbie aisle and the aisle where they sell the roller skates and hockey sticks...it is 11:00 pm....no one is in the store...car
lights from the parking lot are lighting up the back wall as workers from the grocery store leave the lot to go home....it is quiet except for
the small rat in the back room...i hear the hum of a flourescent ballast
about to decay...i have been here for 5 months...i do not know how much longer i will stay here in the floor....this is my moment of self
realization...

My wife got a baby version of "The Velveteen Rabbit" for my boy the othe day and we read it last night. Your story is just as sad as that, and I hope there is a happy ending... but regardless of how happy the end is we'll still probably be sad.

Less impressive, too literal, didn't spark my senses.

BTW: Although I haven't finished it House of Leaves is an insane book.

EDIT:That btw seems off topic, but the original post reminded me of it.
