Premium Member Romeo and Juliet- An Altered Ending
Shakespeare's quill gave Romeo and Juliet a tragic ending but that's a sad love story I think needs a bit of mending. Yes, he's the Bard, but quite frankly it broke my heart to learn they both died needlessly. I hated that part. In my rewritten dialogue between them, I'd find a way to change their ill-fated future and have...

Altered Spirits
In ancient times, Before the predators came Africa stood tall With its vibrant flame A land of secrets A land of wisdom Thriving in glory Flourishing in pride The beat of the djembe The sound of the ekwe Filling the night with An enchanting display. History has been lost Africa has been altered Trials and tribulations But our spirits are unbroken. Through oral traditions History did unfold, Preserving legends, Preserving wisdom....

Forever Altered
The sound of metal scraping on asphalt, echoed through the frosty morning air, as the trailer slid and skidded, leaving chaos and destruction there. The semi-truck came hurtling fast, its trailer swerving, out of control, I felt the impact as it struck my car, a moment that shook my very soul. My mind was racing,...

Premium Member Altered State
Sometimes late at night Before my dreams take flight I lie in a peaceful state Where I observed the finale fate Of what could come to be This is something we all could see . In this place where our inner mind is set free What could come to past for all Or maybe it is our very own fall. In this...

Altered
In this new world, voices run free. I left that other part of me with my family. In this alternative universe- I feel welcome. I feel embrace. The voices don’t seem so evil. It is reality that is evil to me. Time matters less to me. But I feel guilty- Because my family is fighting with time....

Altered Demeanor
He skips in With a large happy grin Full of himself He continues walking in The sun is shining The sky is clear All his worries disappear. He walks in with a stale simple look Confused by himself He stops at the door Rain is patting down the windows Light clouds in the sky His worries begin to appear once again. He stutters in With a small noticeable...

Premium Member Altered State of Reality
An altered state of reality, Could there really be a duality? Who determines if everything is twisted? I always thought everything just coexisted. It’s just a matter of perception, Outsiders just see a complexion. It really comes down to perspective, It’s all subjective. Who are these fellow creatures? They claim to be our teachers. © Deborah Seale Schnadelbach 3/4/2022...

Premium Member My Altered Vocation
Like little iron-particles getting fast attracted to, Any bit magnet: rough or rude or smooth or old or new; So too I got bewitched and swayed by any new action, That in any way or form gave psychic satisfaction...! That feeble news-vendor who dropped newspapers on our door, That soothsayer on narrow by-pass wayfarer-road floor; That hawker about the road;...

Altered States
Altered States Woke up this morning, I was lying on the floor The windows were all covered, bars upon the door People came inside I said,” What is this all for?” They said, “You need your medicine!” After taking the medicine, I walked on down the hall Comic book writing was all over the walls Grandfather clock was talking with a drawl What...

Life Course Altered
Have you heard Rams and sheep's in a herd; A human as a shepherd, But he has to fed his family like the wolves do, So whose wrong?... Life's course so difficult But we all gotta make it, Even though we carrying the world; Backs against backs A strange war- the battle against self Family and friends... For talents and acceptance, Mutants vs humans The...
