Sitting here at the Maplewood Hotel in Lily Dale. I’m in a dark room, near the wireless router. A few people are in the next room over, the lobby, talking.

A few minutes ago I saw a bright white/blue flash of light out of the corner of my eye. A camera’s flash. A glint of light in the mirror. But there was no camera. And the people in the next room over saw it too, thought it was a power surge from my computer, perhaps. But there was no power surge.
