Conspiring melodies, tongue-in-cheek parodies, beginning to recall memories, shove them down, place myself at ease. Jilted rhythms, a sonata heaves and breathes, escaping the melancholy, Dear, there seems no end to these.

Prose Poetry/Audio: contemplation — gusting down to earth – 04/12/21
I scatter the ashes from dawn to dusk, breathe the fire raging within, overtaking much of my ire, and I glance all around, gather myself as I rooooaaaar that sound; I am calling, calling for something – I wait for an approach all around. Bouncing, and bounding are those terrible two, a pair of angry feline-like beings whom will not cease their stares, their venomous fangs they gnash and gnash my way, punishment? Although what ill have I performed? That’s not for me to say. I fend off the creatures, with their wild, wild stares and ferocious, swiping claws until they realise, I can well-word myself out of any situation, at least the concept is correct – with a peeling away, they retract with their intent so flawed. [...]
Poem: A Funny Little Poem – 26/04/20
It’s three in the afternoon, my tummy begins to grumble! Time for a snack, what’s on the menu? Possible thoughts are tossed and tumbled. A muesli bar? A chocolate slice? Caramel latte or a tea? My stomach further grumbles: rejection! It seems these treats are not for me. I open the fridge, peruse [...]
Story: The Most Easily Startled Shark You Would Ever Meet – 01/09/19
Spike was an easily startled shark, everything he saw caused him a sense of horror to be seen, he jumped at the sight of anything, even a malformed coral piece lurking deep within the sea. The shadowy darkness of a cavern would make him tremble just so, the privacy for him was no sense or [...]
Story: Carmella the Witch-In-Training and the Sparkling Night Sky – 01/09/19
The sky appeared, to her, so very dull and grey. With her wand presented, she shut her eyes, winced them closed tightly, her thoughts, whatever they might be, didn’t, by any means, come carelessly. Carefully, she wound the wand around and around, circling the dull sky, until brightness abounded. From the tip of the wooden [...]
Story: Patrick the Pelican With a Tickle in His Throat – 31/08/19
Patrick the Pelican never bothered to chew. A huge mouthful of fish swallowed, gone, that was how he rolled, that was what he would do. Why would anyone bother with the activity of chewing when he could swallow many fish while even thinking? Sometimes he warned by his other, non-pelican friends that he must chew, [...]
Poem and Drawing: Two Sword Playing Mice – 27/07/19
Sometimes mice just want to have fun. Two sword playing mice, See how they fight, Watch as one leaps gracefully into a dance, And slices the thin air near the first sword mouse, making him evasively prance. The air rippppps, ever so slightly, A reflection of the thin sword being so mighty. Gleeful grey Field Mouse, See as [...]
Story example: Gerald the Graveyard Caretaker – 27/07/19
Ghouls can be viewed in differing lights. Gerald was a peculiar character, he possessed strange characteristics, oddities that stuck out, character flaws, personality antics. He was awkward around men and women, and only felt comfortable around ghouls, of the graveyard in which he took care of them. He faltered at the sight of a real [...]
Story example: Shower of Superpower – 26/07/19
The Shower helped you slip into an outfit more comfortable. It was a little known fact in the town of Wertferdshire that the public toilet and shower block possessed much power. Only among the adults was this subject made privy, for their children and other younger folk, the fact was unknown, and to share it [...]
Story example: Mugshots of a Famous Mug – 25/07/19
Barry was interrupted on his way to work. Barry the Mug led an ordinary life. He woke, put the coffee on, fixed breakfast for his disabled wife. They sat together as he quietly sliced her pancakes into smaller pieces, it made it easier for her to tackle, one of the many difficulties that existed for [...]
