There is no cure for the itchIt permeates through my fleshDroning on the same detailReminding of how I’ll failAnother stitch in the lineRunning out of timeThen the mold will be setHardened by the problematicA view to my tainted shellVictory of the spellLocked inside these four wallsDefinition to the foolsWhile I bicker with myselfA cage ofContinue reading “Scratch The Skin”

Clearing House
Story day is here again! Another non-Sci-Fi (I’m sure that’s the wrong way of describing it) story this week. I seem to be on a bit of a roll in that regard. Anyway, I’m not going to say much about this one other than it’s working title, which was Heist. Think that says enough onContinue reading “Clearing House”

Of Wolf
Back again with a story post. Another fantasy story this week (about 11000 words). You can probably guess what it’s about by the title, so I’ll just come and out and say it involves werewolves. That’s enough from me. See what you think! The sky is dark as the hour is late. The only lightContinue reading “Of Wolf”
Mirage
I saw a sight that I don’t believeIt can’t be real for me to conceiveJust a mirage to my eyesAn illusion of my fractured mindSo I walk across the sandDesperate for a change in landMy body weak and my soul corruptSome might want to call it justBut I just want a place to restA chanceContinue reading “Mirage”
