“What do you think it is?”
James asked as James and Henry stood on the pathway watching the currious creature that presently blocked their path.
Henry just shrugged in response to James’ question. It bore some resemblence to an armidillo. It was an armored creature, but roughly the size of medium dog, its snout was flatter than an armidillos. In coloration it resembled a turtle in shades of gre...
Amelia felt utter and complete schock at the scene which befell her eyes. Her heart stopped beating, she couldn’t breathe. She blinked her eyes several times thinking, hoping beyound hope that this was some terrrible hallucination, a dream. But then the pungent, putrid odor hit her and reality slammed back down upon her like a stone.
She scanned over the scene before her, the piles of boddies, ev...
A subtlte whiff or morning mist
the frosty scent which freezes the nose,
a suggustion of rain in the air,
notes of a humid summer night
right before a thunder storm.
The clean crisp freshness
of a winter days with
an essence of evergreens,
the armoa that carries
just off the top of water.
Distinct yet undefinable,
a smell that is almost not
a smell and thus noticed
for its odorlessness,
a...
Silence rolls like a thunder
through my head
pushing agsinst the walls
of my mind.
Vines climbing up
my throat as I try
to scream out.
Paste in my mouth
I choke down words
by clockwork turns
my lungs chime the
hour.
Inhale for breath
I prepare to
unearth the dead
I cary inside.
My voice muffled
by gravel
bleeding from
the corners.
I feel burried alive
trapped inside
ponding at th...
His heart raced and for a moment he wondred if they had gone too far. Was it time to call it quits at last? But deep down he knew he had grown addictited to the rush, the excitement, the danger. He couldn’t return to normal hum drum life after this. Adrenilin raced through him in equal meassure with fear. It was a feeling he new would never truly be sated.
Ok it was go time he thought to himself....
I do not know how I never noticed it before, this subtle shift in color, this strangeness, something almost inhuman. But now suddenly it struck me. I felt my heart begin to race, panic rising to the surface. I fought to keep it back. To maintain my expression. I did not want him to suspect.
I did my best to smile but even I knew it was a paltry at best effort. I watched him watching me, so calml...
Sleek, subtle inkiness
slips ever so briefly
into the negative space
between worlds.
Where realities briefly
overlap, with moth-like
evanescence it moves
between darkness and light.
Hovering on the cusp
of waking and sleeping
awaiting for its perfect
moment to sweep down
and drink the nectar of
dreams....
She was always so careless
with things
the way some doors
would slam behind her
in a thunder
announcing her commings
and leavings.
At other times
they swung
haphazardly ajar,
completely forgotten.
Her life was a dangerzone
of distruction and inattention,
she never turned the locks
because she never bothered
with keys.
The screendoor
battering in the wind
was the drumb beat
she dance...
“Damn it!” Aden said as he looked out over the horizon. The sun was starting to set. That flat tire set them back. There was no way they would make it back back to the compund before night fall even if he gunned it.
“Get the gear” Aden called out to Hailey who was still in the truck.
“On it” Her voice called back as sje jumped out of the truck, her boots hitting the dusty ground. She slung a b...
Nobody understands the calling. They do not appereciate what would happen if I did not obey the calling. People may judge me for my actions, they may look at me in disgust, call me a monster. They are blind to the truth. I am one of the few enlightend ones. I can see through the illusion.
I gaze down at her now still, breathless form. She lay so peacefully at my feet. Her beauty and innonsence is...
