Worlds Without
The bed awaited each morning with joy, For we let spring spill on the sheets— Just a tad whenever we woke up. Ours weren't playdates of note, Rather daffodils unencumbered with The expectations of prickless beauty. As the cradle looked in approval, Our happy chuckles gave it purpose, Then we bloomed, unbothered and true. We appear quiet in the vastness without— but our content faces speak volumes. For the bed, the covers, and the air around shelter all core memories in this room of ours.

Mana Burn
Chapter 1 - The Outset
I was not prepared for the humidity to slap and smother every inch of my body like an invisible mask the moment I stepped out of the safety of the terminal.
After texting the entire group that I was on the ground, it only took ten minutes to find Harley Campbell by baggage claim. His height helped.
Hearing that someone is six and a half feet, or just slightly under two meters, is one thing. Seeing them in the flesh is something else.
His hair appeared a little lighter in person than in his videos, while still darker than dirty blond. Maybe. I wasn't an expert on hair.
He turned around when I called his n

Nevermore II
“We loved with a love that was more than love.”
“Is that you, mijo?” Andre’s father called groggily through his bedroom door.
“Yeah; it’s me, papá,” the boy replied. He grimaced and looked away when his father emerged from his room at the end of hall, dressed in only his tighty-whiteys and white tank top. “Dude, some pants, por favor.”
The older man waved him off with a grunt as he disappeared into the bathroom.
Andre took the chance to duck into the kitchen, setting his things by the wall that divided it from the living room. He frowned at the dirty dishes i

[One Piece] Silent Act (Roci poem, now performed!)
Exiled from the sky where fake gods reside,
I played the part of the quiet, smaller child.
With my elder brother I struggled to survive:
we hid from people, nearly starved to death,
and when mother died I silently wept.
Then two years later my silence broke:
I also lost father, killed by my own blood.
I screamed in despair and then ran away,
was found by a man to whom I'm indebted.
I became a marine, as a pirate disguised,
to my brother I returned, there were wine ‘n smiles.
I was welcomed back, no questions were asked,
and in the spider's nest I acted quietly,
whilst my brother's shadow becoming
to stop the madness of m

Origins Unveiled (see intro)
"Man has forgotten or been ignorant that his faculties are limited. He has failed to mark the line of demarcation, beyond which his knowledge could not extend. Instead of applying his mind to objects cognizable by his senses, he has attempted subjects above the reach of the human mind, and has lost and bewildered himself in the maze of metaphysics. He has not known or not attended to what has so clearly been proved by Locke, that no idea can be received except through the medium of sense. He has endeavored to form ideas without attending to this principle, and, as might be expected, he has run into the greatest of absurdities, the necessary consequence of such imprudence............."

it can't and won't and would never hurt you (in spite of all appearances) in fact it's here to help you and/or maybe you're there to be aided by it........and/or it's here and you're there in order to assist each other in some not at all together explicable manner.......... anyhoo............. you may be pulled apart and rearranged and later put back together and something will have changed and it won't be just your furniture which only minutes ago you were conversing with maybe only one way but it's the thought that counts and that comfy chair over near the window is no longer simply the one they delivered from the store for at the store you had no wish or desire to address it as you may have just done............. and who knows? maybe it rather likes you after all these years you generally sat down in it gently and neither spilled on nor farted into it any more than the chair was designed

Confluence of Dread and Shame
Harvey Kipper knew it was coming long before anyone else. He thought that gave him an advantage.
On December 20th, 2012, he sped down an Illinois interstate in his bright red Plymouth Fury, knowing every time he saw the skies get a little grayer and the satellite radio get a little less clear that he was being vindicated. After years of warning those in his community outside Springfield that the end was nigh, after nearly a decade of being laughed at, called a loon, and suffering the misery of failed relationships, he was being proven right.
Perhaps they had had a point; perhaps his belief that there was a real connection between the works
