A poem inspired by "The Girl and the Pendulum," describing Cattrell's thoughts of his second wife as he stares into the empty water fountain before his visit to Cassandra.
The Anniversary
Years to the day
that I lost my wife
I lost my love.
How solitary it feels
To feel numb
On this special day.
For the memory
Is shattered
By the current loss.
And the heart
is confused
by its very own faith.
On this very day
The one who loved me most
was forever lost to me.
Happy anniversary.

"The Girl and the Pendulum" is an 18-part future-noir science fiction story about a a private investigator's search for a missing android. How can a man who searches for missing women find lost artificial intelligence? I welcome feedback on this story about a man and his difficult case in a post-war, post collapse world.

Maybe its just me, but I wish it had more detail.
What does the numbness feel like? Why would a memory shatter? How does a memory shatter? Like a mirror? Like a champagne glass?

Thanks for the input... I don't have any analogies in this one, but the ones you mentioned sound very appropriate and real
