Candle Opera
Candle Opera Have you ever taken time out to look up at the stars? They shine bright from afar. Seeing light dancing at night. Feeling spiritually grateful all the time. Looking up, counting your blessings. Through an orchestra, the wind is singing. Guidance along the path. Growing old, time goes by fast. Reach out and...

Opera for Feminine Otherness
Demigirl Definition A space between Androgyny and conventional binaries of female identity A gender not recognized by mainstream policies And subjected to the far corners of the Q+ community Act 1: Physicality I am a tangled mess of tree limbs With coils blessed by God Skin, a milky chocolate brown I trace the bumps around my knuckles My fingers map out the uncharted waves...

Premium Member Alone in the Opera House
Fantastical notes of gloom filled the orchestra pit Who was playing? No one was here. Except Paul. He felt spooked after searching for the source. A gremlin band, a ghost trio, a zombie orchestra? The music was deliberate, harsh, off beat, nonharmonic The hair on the back of Paul’s neck rose almost an inch He felt threatened, for he knew he...

Premium Member Lacustrine Opera
In bejeweled jade landscape the topaz terrain rolls as wondrous waves, undulates with sculpted panorama of captivating cadence, entrenches in earthen frame the sprawling shape of a placid lake, sublimely sparkling, the shining sapphire face looking up entranced toward the cerulean sky, spread serene on boundless blankness. The southern zephyr whispers enticing melody to the rhapsodic ripples, rolling aquatic rhythm, intensely passionate, stretching in seraphic span of self-centric...

Premium Member Book Report - Phantom of the Opera
The phantom of the opera was sincere, but, with him, I wouldn't want to share a beer. Not only that, but furthermore, in any case, have you ever happened to see his face? A spectral figure, clothed in red, he had no face upon his head. High o'er Paris on an opera house roof, she described that phantom...

Star
I didn't know what to say. For once in my life, I was quiet. I stood there, nails digging into my palms, it stang; Eyes too, tears reflect what they see; Tinnitus, blood rushes up above, defies gravity. I couldn't say what I wanted to. The lights, with a thud they jump on; Right on me, here My lips quiver, It's hot, my...

Midnight abracadabra
Please don’t leave me hanging like that that, I hate to be in suspense, you piqued my curiosity and it’s so intense. Artfully teasing you know how to play, always one step ahead, leaving me dizzy and frayed, My head is spinning you think you’re winning, who’s got the last laugh? What’s all that...

Cause it helps sort out the feelings inside her? Repose is something grinding-study denies her. Now, rhyming isn't her primary desire the connections form, almost, despite her poetry’s at it best when...
