Elizabeth: The Love Experiment

I am at the lake where my grandmother has a cottage. Someone shouts that they can see the whales. I look out across the water from our cottage on the hill and see two large figures circling in the water. They don't really look like whales, they look more like giant serpents, maybe 60 feet long each and about 10 feet wide. Rising from the lake I see 9 plumes of thick smoke.





There is a group of people at the cottage. There are pictures of Jim Morrison on a wall and I hear my husband saying the words, "I love Jim Morrison. He is my beloved." In that moment I know he has fallen in love with him and I realize we are part of a love experiment. I rip the photo off the wall because I want my husband to be in love with me and I hastily make him say "I love Elizabeth, she is my beloved." I acted quickly enough, cementing his love for me (and not Jim Morrison.)





I become the conductor of the experiment and have a group of people sit in a circle. They all turn to the person to their right, one my one, and say the love words. They each fall in love with the person to their right. I have formed a love cult and can bind my followers to me with this love science. I have made two men fall in love with me and they both try to outdo each other by giving me lavish gifts. One man gives me the gift of jewel teeth. I look into the mirror and see that each of my teeth has a jewel cap, like little grains of rainbow corn.
