Premium Member Fake Out
I woke to a whirring hum— not the low drone of memory, but the sharp, electric flick of a question with wings. Languorous molten air, a stone canyon furnace, and there!— a hummingbird— head cocked— beady eyes peering at me— beak poised at the gate of my breath— as if to sample my soul— or wake it back to life. It must have thought me a flower on a...

Premium Member Casualty Of Your Cruelty
The radiant shine leaves your aurora dimming ever so quickly, as in northern regions you are—borealis falling into the southernmost Sahara negative gradients descend—australis The gloss of moral sanction The glitter of a social butterfly The prism of a love sonnet I thought it would never end False is an outward appearance Black smoke puffed ...

Common
From beneath a veil, A shroud itself hidden, Anonymity It's masquerade. Tired secrets languish, Benighted by nature, Emerald, to pale green and white, from jade. A sough in the head, Of their tepid maker, Whispers nothing, wholly unaware. Crafty camouflage, For the crafter of secrets, Who never knew they were there. The irony aroma, Stagnant blood without pressure, Metallic, unmoved, unaffected. Averse to sense, Illusory marionette's, Clear strings, turbid skeins undetected. And the...

The Masquerade
Oh, your eyes so dry, Longing for a long cry. All those fake chortles, Hollow habits of a mortal. Someone asking, "How's your day?" You liberally Lying with "I'm okay." Okay is not the word I'd use, Though it's an excellent excuse Hiding my aching bruise. Rotting is what I'd use. It's my soul's beloved ailment. No, it's not a bruise, It's just a mere statement....

Premium Member FAKE NEWS FICTION
Galvanizing, never scrutinized; each moment falsely tabulated; Slanted, polarized polls, punishing spiteful pundits Spouting, spinning lies in frantic unison squawking Ridiculous versions of fear mongering tales, Meant to frighten, meant to hurt, Meant to clutch and pulverize power. It takes only a calm, rational thinking moment To see through the maze of their foggy logic. Nothing they say is fact checked or based...

Jar of fake hopes
Filling up the unknown eerie, Reason that turns-into weary, Slowly piling up the jar of fake Hopes Seems an open silk thread but truly-many suffocating ropes. A word so blind,that might relax their thirst. Ever wondered?when this jar breaks-a cloudburst. Leaving it empty-accepting what it may... Keeping up the truths-burying all concealed days....

All the fake stunts I pulled, you never bought them, All the cigarettes I rolled, you never smoked them, I need a light in my life to illuminate all the darkness, I need a space to breathe, to heal from the pain that weighs on me. You and I, when we meet, we surpass all expectations, we lose ourselves...

To Just
Would they notice, If my solace escaped? If my sombre eyes finally pinned shut. Life is just. I must. That fake smile, the painful mask I sew to my skin, Just to feel something. Hanging on by a single thread. Each day tugs at the strings, Test another limit. Is it normal, to just? ...

fake review
Fake reviews In 1963, I ate lunch at Andrea’s café, her food was wonderful I advised mariners to go for a visit and be welcomed by a true lady. I now learned that unsolicited reviews are no longer appreciated My recommendation was delivered verbally Andrea doesn’t know she is a grandmother and One of her grandchildren runs the place I...
