Premium Member Adapting the Craft
Adapting the Craft My father looked up Zealot Street toward the mountain where ore buckets hung to cart the coal. “Don’t go near the mine” he repeat- ed, the chant of elders who fore- warned him of the dangerous hole. He’d just go up through Bessie’s place to find a young tree with a v that he could cut out with his knife and string...

Peter and I are together and we’re in a grove. Time is our treasure, precious and dwindling. I watch for signs of the future unfolding, like a twitch that might be the first sign of a stroke. Answers will come - slowly - or they’ll parachute in from nowhere. We spend a lot of time together but most of...

Schmooze me darling, my appetite is rapt. Drinks with umbrellas - a tropical freeze. Cruise for teal blue waters whilst I adapt. Shrinks the mainland - aims towards* coconut trees. Muse takes the wheel - island adventure mapped. Winks his erotic eye - how wild the seas. Weather for sailing - no longer a wreck, Tether me, baby, to your wafting deck....

Tick Tick Tick I sit here and wait before my final walk, those final few moments of my fate, straight through the cell door. The clock is ticking, I have too finally admit to sins I have committed. I wonder how i got this far. I fought fiercely overseas for my country. Not knowing what state I was in I returned home with...

Adapting, For Adult Contest
Growing up is not at all what it seems. You have to be at work early and keep a strict routine. No summer break, running through the sprinklers or first kisses at the lake. Everything is now either a make or a break. You now have a job, a spouse and dinner to make, kids to bath...

Adapting Around
Adapting around. Salutations to the salamander which is an extraordinary being; It can live in water it's whole life like a fish or walk on land both life giving; they have normally four toes on the front legs and five digits on both of the receding; when they are young they are velvet to touch...
