BRAIN THE SIZE

A PLANET

Chapter One

 

BREAKFAST WITH NANABANANA

……

 Cillian Custard was a natural egghead yet was taught and imposed upon the methods of memory, however this is the romance of his early moments.

 First every night before the natural crash of  his senses, his mother Floella would tuck him in at Funny Floor Cottage with his Steampunk stuffed Rabbit Daisy Doughnut. She wouldn’t read him a book or anything, as she was too thick for that. That was Nanabanana’s job. And one of his six senses would wonder what the Soup Sisters Genevieve and Selina next door were concocting for the next day’s menu, as the odour of their cooking invaded the crevices in the brickwork.

 As by oneself his imagination could see the Ice Cream Moon, of those mind’s eye wonder years. Floella thought he was a fruitcake, with thoughts that only he could invent and see. All Cillian had to do was look into the eyes of his anthropomorphic Daisy Doughnut, and he was off. This stuffed doorstop doll animated his imagination and followed him on his endless spectrum of adventures in his mind that he could with fantasy simply shape and change. And Cillian always whispered to his much loved soulmate steampunk doll so as not to disturb the Soup Sisters of the Something Tasty Soup Shop next door.
