In a poor town, there lived a human that was different from the others. On his back, he had large black wings, and on the top of his head, he had small shiny horns. He wanted to be like the others, so, he accepted a cruel offer.

“All I have is $5”, the old man said. The winged man agreed. The old man said it would be painless. He was wrong.

The winged man, waking up wingless, was in deep pain, fo...

A fiver and a stick of gum. That’s all I took when I left you. Ribs throbbing, nose bleeding. No refuge but distance from you, your warm arms that squeezed air from my lungs, while cold heart never number the pain. I drowned in your eyes and never made it up for air. Until now. £5 and a photograph in my pocket, brothers at arms. ...

I think the internet helps humans get smarter. Since people use the internet for information or research or even assignments tests could be done. The internet can help you figure out how to sale candy in schools for fun raising. You can learn how to make shoes and then sale the shoes. You can even teach children how to cook at a early age. But the important reason is that the internet can help yo...

He stood in the dimly lit alley, rifling through a bag. It had belonged to a woman, maybe twenty years old, and full of life. He didn’t think about her. He didn’t care.

She now lay a few steps from him, barely breathing. Her blonde hair lay in a crown around her pale face. “All I have is £5” she had told him. He didn’t care.

Only a handful of steps away, the Main Street was bustling. Busy shoppe...

I stumble into neverland

I wander by the sea

Immensed by berlin through and through

Caged bird sang for me

I paint the words inside my mind

They sing and dance and cry

I run my finger across the spine

Oh, time sure does fly

My phone chimes, it’s time to go

It’s time to let it be

5£ can’t buy me a thing

but luckily, magic is free...

“All I have is $5,” I thought to myself. It’s Sunday, and I have to make it last all week. I could just buy Ramen, it would keep me full, but it’s not healthy.

I looked at the prices, and thought about my choices that led me to only having five dollars. I quit my job after too many customers grouped me. My boss said it was part of the job, and “boys will be boys.” That I’d get more tips if...

It seems like every financial emergency happens when your bank account is low. I have to choose between food or gas. And as we all know, you can't eat regular unleaded so I'll have to get the 4 for 4 from Wendy's and turn my gas tank over to the Lord because he is my Shepard and I shall not want! I'm literally a flat time away from being homeless. Paying $125 for a tire right now will have my fi...

The grey smoke that billowed out from underneath the hood caused her to curse loudly and pull off to the side of the old country back road. Flipping on her hazard lights and turning off the car she rested her forehead against the worn leather steering wheel.

‘Oh great the flashlight’s dying, of course because nothing can go right today’ she thought to herself while slapping th...

One day Jane was walking around London taking in it’s many pleasures.

It was a beautiful June day. A museum was Jane’s primary goal on this day. Her preferred paintings were the Pre-Raphaelite paintings in the Tate Britain. Thankfully there were benches to sit and admire each painting. Proserpine by Dante Gabriel Rossetti being her favorite.

The security guards knew Jane well. She would sto...

“I’m sorry, ma’am, but I can’t let you on this bus,” says the bus driver. He smells like an old person, and doesn’t take his eyes off Marnie’s chest while he speaks.

“Please, I need to get to London!” Marnie begs.

“If you can’t pay the fare, I can’t let you on,” he says matter-of-factly.

“All I have is £5,” she looks down sadly at the crumpled notes in her hand.

The bus driver won’t budge, bu...
