The Diary Letter to Beatrice
The Diary Letter to Beatrice (A lone voice whispers, as the right hand, takes careful notes) In the deepest of silence I always walk Deep in thoughts, into my own created Maelstrom of Defiance As memories of you appear slowly, like a wild moorland winter fog Which slithers, rolls and returns With a soft hint of a time that was...

Premium Member Improvised Altars
I cracked the olive pit between my molars— bitter pod, black shrine. The sea came through my teeth, settled brine, at the root. They said do not name the god, so I lit her symbol with hyssop oil and lemon peel, dragged it across my tongue like a net. The temple was inside me, sealed in salt. Each time I wept, I baptized what I could not forgive. ...

Premium Member Is it Just a Dream?
The laboratories hum with cold efficiency, believing they command the future, their sterile corridors lit by the relentless glow of progress. A miracle, they called it—stitching together creatures torn from legend and nightmare, two extinct beasts merged into a single entity through genetic alchemy. DNA of long-dead beasts resurrected into new life—their ultimate creation: a...

Premium Member For Shining So Bright, You Burn Out and Die
For shining so bright, you burn out and die; for soaring too close to the sun, you fall to the hard earth below and crash: “Too high,” judge the gods; so, as lesson to us all, you're chastened for your lofty, prideful flight. Like Icarus,...

Purple Dreams in Other Realms Continued For Contest
Once upon a magical evening an enchanted fairy I happened to see dressed in a fantastical dress with two dappled wings of lace, she shone like the midnight sun; I must confess, she looked rather whimsical sitting there by a green wooden door, waiting for your lore ! ...

They Named Me Zeus
From East to West let my servant's trumpet announce this victory over those who defied me; no Greek dares to fight me: I am their uttermost deity! They named me Zeus and look to me for guidance, I carry the thunderbolt and I strike all enemies with vengeance; they fell by the dozen in the battlefield below Athens, the ones who survived will challenge me...

my soul in foreign lands, forgotten 1
The map unrolls, a skin of dust where landmarks shift like whispers lost to a gust. I trace a fracture, jagged, unfamiliar... place where my phantom feet wandered, chillier than memory allows. A tongue they spoke is lost... A melody unheard of, at dearly paid cost within the crumbling walls of an infernal keep... A cracked, blackened mirror shows a face though...

The Ledger
In smoky halls where echoes groan, They carved the truths in tempered stone, Yet none recall the scribe who wrote, A chap in boots and mismatched coat. His quill was plucked from harpy's wing, He’d hum while making corpses sing, And in his book, no saints nor rules, Just jesters crowned as sacred fools. He’d scrawl: “The Pharaohs danced in socks,” “Atlantis sank for...

Premium Member Cassandra
Cassandra, you who knew the leaves of time, And traced them in your mind before they fell: A gift perhaps for mortals too sublime, Perhaps a cloak of darkness suits more well. Cassandra, did you wish this thing to be? To reach beyond the veil the future lays? To now and all of time at once to see? To live a life...
