SENTIENT POLYHEDRON

SENTIENT POLYHEDRON
"Two of the less irrelevantly moving things - a rather large congeries of iridescent, prolately spheroidal bubbles and a very much smaller polyhedron of unknown colours and rapidly shifting surface angles - seemed to take notice of him and follow him about or float ahead as he changed position among the titan prisms, labyrinths, cube-and-plane clusters and quasi-buildings"
H.P. Lovecraft, Dreams In the Witch-House

  1. Like the bubble creature, these shapes were probably quite mundane in their own worlds, but happened at the time to be voyaging, either by accident, on purpose, or as the subjects of another agency, from their own world to another. Gilman, the old witch and her familiar were among these shapes.
