Impromptu Bloom
One day I found a large seed laying by the edge of the tarred two lane road
on my way to no particular destination; I enjoy driving to somewhere without
a map for it often adds mystery and adventure when life becomes too routine.
The seed was large enough and its contrasting coloration instantly caught my
eye and I pulled over to the side of its side of the road.
When I got home I planted the seed hoping and somewhat excited to find out
what rewards it would yield! After more than a year of everything I could think of
I kind of forgot all about the seed...

Nobody's Perfect
Arrgh! Everything's eating everything else!” he shrieked, recoiling in horror from the extremely powerful telescope. “What sort of a god would design a world like that?”
“Perhaps it was just a first draft,” she answered, from the next universe but one. “You know, like when we sit down with a freshly-sharpened pencil to write a poem in our Moleskine notebook, or on the back of an envelope if we're that sort of a poet, and it doesn't turn out quite as well as we'd intended. Now shut the f*** up and come back to bed.”

A Meeting With Her Uncle
They chose a secluded spot at the foot of the cliff near a pile of rocks, placed a couple of towels on the sand and opened the picnic hamper Bill had brought.
French bread and Parma ham. Ginger beer and chilled wine that they drank from plastic glasses. Salad with plum tomatoes. The wine and heat made her heady.
They exchanged bits of news, then sat in companionable silence, watching a boat on the water.
‘Penny for your thoughts,’ Bill said, hand rolling a cigarette. The tobacco smelt rich. For some reason, it reminded her of chocolate.

Shark Tooth Tavern
Chapter ONE
Blackstone lighthouse peered over Tentacle bay. The colony was cut into the dark marble cliffs above. The buildings shone into view as a swarm of bats spiralled by. The waves were menacing, lit up by the flash of fork lighting. The Shark Tooth Tavern peered back across the raging waters. It was dug into the rock high above the Bay. Those that frequented it enjoyed warm nights sipping at their drinks and staring into the never-ending storm.
They led slow and repetitive lives, often spending months waiting for news from the home colonies, they waited for a change in...

Atlantis
Located just beyond the Pillars of Hercules, Atlantis was to be the city of the future. A floating island, actually, designed for the pleasures of the super rich by architects and engineers who would make Da Vinci proud. A floating island, with, underneath, attachment which made it possible for a few persons at a time to explore the sea life while quietly sitting abord ingenuous crafts. But this got to be much toooooo much for some gods who figured these people wanted to become - or thought they were greater then Zeus himself. But the Oracles spoke in vain and nobody on the island heard the...

Happy trails
So God was riding her Unicorn, a lovely one recuperated from a shelter because nobody wanted her because she was not pure white, had a few black spots, like a beautiful cat. She sometimes liked to ride bareback, sometimes she used her English saddle but today she opted for her excellent Westen saddle especially made for her in Fort Worth, Texas. Sadly, perhaps it had to do with a local twang but someone had spelled and carved GAD instead of GOD on the fine leather. Still, riding whatever style is not easy, horses and unicorns have minds of their own ans sometimes accidents happen, as...

Post Haste!
On my way to the Red Post Box today, i was caught in a sudden heavy rainfall, also the wind suddenly picked up, and within seconds, there were wet autumnal, sodden yellows, reds, and brown, rusting, and rustic leaves flapping around, one of which, slapped me around my cheek!
I carried on walking, my only concern, was to make sure i posted the small bundle of envelopes i had clutched in my hand, and that actually, i quite enjoyed the rain, i found it's honesty, refreshing. The envelopes only suffered mild moistening, where some droplets had run of my hands. I posted the letters into the...

Hardcore romance 8
Dorris was still confused about the call of her husband's friend. Why was it so urgent ? Why wouldn't he put it off till the following day ?
And why did she have to wait for him
in her tailor shop just to get his measurements for a suit which would definitely take a while to make.
Dorris was alone in the shop when she heard heavy steps outside the door . The bell rang and she immediately opened it.
A bulky man was standing in front of her and looking around just to fixate his lustful daring gaze upon Dorris later.
"Hi, ma'm . I'm Venus' friend. He says...

Time, And Motion
.....Was at the school, picking up my daughter, and a friend of hers. They were both now 5 years old. All went well, and we had plenty of time before parents evening started. It was a nice day, so we stopped off at the park, telling them they had half an hour, as i still had to feed them. Half an hour, became 45 minutes, so we left the park, and headed home, and decided to just give them sandwiches instead. funny how quickly time can go, especially when you have to be somewhere....anyway, they were eating their sandwiches, and i left the kitchen, and popped into the living room, and then...

w.i.p. (limited time offer!)
..................I spoke this aloud into the tape recorder and placed it on the table
Or actually atop a butcher's block
Atop the table and when I finished this with one smooth motion
I pulled out a hatchet and severed my finger.
Forging these quickly into a bundle
With kite string
I tied it to the leg of a raven.
Out the window with you and be utilitarian.
Well my boy that was certainly melodramatic
S. was saying.
Yes, perhaps you’re right I said and thought for a minute...
