I wake up to the bright light of morning, listening to the sounds of the insects as the alarm on my phone resonates with the barking guffaw of the zebra (I changed it to enhance the mood). Light is flooding through the walls of the tent. As I stretch and wiggle, luxuriating in the comfort… Continue reading Flash Fiction. African Safari

Flash Fiction. Meet on a plane
Rick. I watch the people pushing down the aisle of the plane, hand baggage held like shields. A constant stream pushing and shoving trying to pack oversized bags into lockers. I notice the guy waiting to get to his seat, he’s tall and seems to be very helpful, stowing bags for the people around him.… Continue reading Flash Fiction. Meet on a plane

Heartless, heartless like an empty can, The ripples from your empty vessel reverberating, through the cosmos, Destroying all those,you snare in your web, Doomed to love only yourself, All your tomorrows set, to your narcissistic pleasure, Heartless, heartless like an empty can, Feeder on the souls of the innocent, I swim against the tide of… Continue reading Like an empty can
Revised You
I posted the poem you yesterday I have reviewed it and changed and hopefully improved it what do you think? You.
