W, an 11-year-old resident of a small midwestern city, finds themself called for jury duty in a property dispute over the underworld. It gets weird from there. Soon enough, the story unravels, revealing itself to have been some sort of poorly constructed metaphor the whole time.

A previous draft of Author's note received this praise:
"Cleverly written... Adventure Yarn. Probe the deep mysteries of life" -My Grandma

"The deepest trees of life?" -My Dad

"Witty, thought provoking... surprising" -Uncredited

This story has a sort of chaos in it that is easily explained by the way it has been haunting me for almost a decade. Over the years, I have attempted to squeeze it into a dozen different meanings, but my previous efforts, lacking an ending to limit them, always seem to bulge out through the cracks. It is a parasite on my soul. I cannot give it up and so have decided, instead, to publish it.

Don't read this story. It's bad.

Sincerely,
The Author
