Eerie, Indiana drabble: The Tree

[froodle]

The metal frame of the old fashioned lampshade was bent and warped and slightly rusty. Tinsel had been wrapped around the skeletal struts and liberal amounts of masking tape held tarnished baubles and moulting wire-framed robins to the shining web formed by the sagging strands. Skeins of partially-shredded cotton wool balls, coated in glitter, were randomly dotted over the whole assemblage, and a length of mostly burnt-out fairy lights flickered spasmodically beneath the tattered remains of the lampshade's silken tassels.

"Thank you, Harley," said Simon, setting it in a place of honour atop his desk. "It's a beautiful Christmas tree."
