Archie: Aha! Pray barmaid, two of yer best for us and haver not. Come prithee ye wee bastar’t and sing yer stories of success, I chance.

Theo: Thus?

Archie: Aye, to...

I. O’ Una, my mind on thee keeps the Cerberus of my memory asleep at the gate. Golden as the Martian sands, yer een pierced a cosmic vacuum through the gales of my middle. No leviathan could hinder my efforts to spread thee across the linen pool once again. Nothing do they know of my secret below. Walls of liquid euphoria do rock my very abode. I shall ride the sea of death and defeat my palest ne...

Patrick sat up. His senses returned to him in a sudden flurry, yet, there was nothing. He reached up and touched his face and he felt it and knew his eyes were open but he couldn’t see anything. He put his hand back on the floor and felt the cold wetness and that’s when he became aware there was water in the ground. In fact it came to him that he was in about an inch of water. His back and the bac...

With talk and song to spread the word

Of joy and praise; to lead the third

Gallant steps, silver wings were spread

To the south and east, who seemed to dread

The rising sun engulfs the land

An Eagle fans the flames at hand

The west to welcome with whistles and cheers

The faces glistened through metallic tears

Follow hands on hearts with rousing speech

Vermillion seas would lap the beach

...

The moving images, blurred

Sound distorted, speech slurred

TV just ain’t what is used to be

I’m mindless but I know what they’re doing

I know where she is

I know who she is

The riots and the violence that splash across my screen

Endearing and fascinating but not to me

My mind is focused on the void and I see nothing else

To the ship I must fly

To this world, say goodbye

Goodbye to everyth...

It was a small town, the type of place where everyone knew everyone.

Oscar owned a series of high-end American model cars. The type of car that if you seen it somewhere else in the world you would say “God damn, that’s an American car!”. He kept them all in his super-sized garage that had one of those remote controls he could use to open and shut the door as he entered and left, in slow motion I ...

The darkness it hides me

The shade it finds me

The whites of my eyes pierce the veil.

Blood pumps a rush

Breath I must hush

For my need, you must not find me.

My steps must be silent

My need is quite violent

Your body is mine for the taking.

The pulse in my limbs

A creature of sins

I think I could die just watching you.

Your tall slender figure

So full of vigour

My hands could take that aw...

Your charm, your wit, your interests and looks. You were absolutely perfect.

Your smile it melted my insides to a sticky gooey substance and filled my belly with moths.

Your deep eyes would suck the soul from my being, my body would wander lost, as a ghost, if I couldn’t look into them.

You made me happiest when we’d talk for minutes about literally anything. Just being with you and knowing y...

A burning of pages, on my front porch

I’m now sat upon the cold concrete with words ablaze in my hand. Smoke has filled my lungs and tears have dried my eyes.

A revelation. Care not if these be true for my family is destroyed because of them.

She, my wife, believed the time was nigh. The voices of angels were ringing and the sounds of trumpets drowned her mind in a thick deceitful fog.

“Inco...
