She's about
to pack up
western wind
bitter sweet treats
pictures of
peach blossoms
and pretentious lyrics
At some moment
rhymes will loosen &
words will flee
through tiny holes
to hover happily
ever after
accoutred in
pompous celibacy.

Sapphires eyes peered from the hedges on Atom Rd. They lazed about like a dragon wakened from a nap, sparks growing by the hr to be cheated by rain's bedimming cataracts. I'm left w/ their legacy of curiosity.

Why couldn’t they see it? Why only I? When my palm touched the slab of oricalcum, I was taken to a place out of space and time when the cult of black wizards dominated humanity. When they enslaved us. Why could I see it and no one else? Why was I chosen?

It is my 1300th Death Day. My friends and I celebrate the night by scaring people. We have dinner of fear and screams.

They hand me a box. "A special present from us."

"Fried souls! Yummy."

"We were cannibalistic."

"We are."

"We're soulbalistic now."

"Keep quiet."

Aeons passed and magic manifested to unfathomable potential. We are now aware we’re not alone in the cosmos for the stars are alive. Watching us. What does this mean for humanity? They’ve known of us all along. A secret kept...but, why?

Cascading flavours
present in fire
A portal we've entered
wreathed in desire
A passion

an ecstatic oath
This appendage of love
the ultimate troth

You could show Gran all the flowers from yesterday's world and she'd still say a Hornbeam tunnel's beauty is nonpareil. "When they yellow, it's a present... 1/3

I've dreamt of sailing the skyship since I was a child. When I became of age, I soared at the opportunity and took it. I always knew there was something special waiting for me above and I was right. The potential of our imagination is boundless. Only if we let it.

The gremlin of heathenhagen. I’ve heard of such a demon dwelling off the wharf; leaving a trail of blood and slime in her wake. At last, we tracked her by the constant ticking. A twisting and turning of gears. There it was. A slime breeding machine. And the people (1/2)

I nearly forgot what the surface looked like. How the embrace of the sun felt. I’d been in the darkness beneath for so long. At last, I’m home. The great empire of mechanis. My friends. My family and many more adventures. It all awaits me up in the clouds.

Try waxing
Epilators and lasers
Or hide your winter coat
Under jeans and blazers

I set the standard
For pins
No need for shaving
Or other things

This isn't a smile
Or rictus grin
It's the smug mug
A hairless win

Course, skin would be nice.
