From the Belly of the Goat Page 7


  The small coastal town is now a cover-up by the government. They told the media that a storm came in from sea and flushed out the town. The government even had a stature made in memory of the people and the goats that once culled the land.

  My studies on the Alp-luachra is deemed Irish folklore. I figured that.

  I know what I saw that day.

  As for the ghostly tribe. I came up with similar events, involving tribes that returned every eleven years to their land they once culled with their goats, the land that was stolen from them, the land where they were buried.

  But once again this is all folklore... Right?

  The anniversary is coming the eleven-year mark.

  Should I quarantine myself or become the sickness?
