  • A Grave for Dead Gods

    I’m the last person to tend to the dead overlords. People of all species do not accept their creators are mortal, despite how long they live for, die just like them. They might understand on a surface level that everything is created from a previous reaction, but foolish enough to…

  • Sunshine Glory

    The clouds are blocking my way! All I want to do is shine my rays on the worlds below. Today is going to be a good day for me. I want to see my own reflection in the glistening rivers and have the mountains sig back to me in my…

  • Puddle Splashing

    I love waddling through the water. It cools my ankles and there are no consequences for getting mud between my toes. I can either walk it off or go swimming in the bigger stretch of water not far from this little pool. I can lead my kids through the water…

  • Thoughts or Nightmares

    I wish I could lay in silence. My brain never shuts the fuck up! I’m constantly fighting my inner dialogue or I’m keeping myself awake long into the night or embarrassing myself all over again from the time I said that really dumb comment seven years ago. My brain is…

  • Ocean Friends (Submitted by Alex)

    I used to have friends and best friends when I was younger. But now as I get older I find myself drawn to the ocean to fill that void. I submerge myself under the water and hold onto the seaweed beneath me and I let all my fears out in…

  • Cactus Longing

    The sands are barren. There is nothing within my field of vision. The sun beams directly onto me and it can get quite warm. I have to store my water supplies and ration them out carefully. In the rare chance it rains, I store the water within my body for…

  • Human Soup

    I hate the city. The size, the smell, the brands, the pretentious architecture, and most of all; the people. I’m such a fish out of water here, the one person not in on the joke, the outsider. Perhaps it’s because I grew up as a simple farm boy. My responsibilities…

  • Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing?

    Have you ever seen a wolf in sheep’s clothing before? Neither have I. I have not ever seen an elephant dressed as a giraffe, a monkey dressed as a cow, or a wolf dressed as a sheep. I overheard a human once say that someone was a ‘bull in a…

  • Sunshine

    I shine where I see fit. And I am always in communication with the clouds on Earth. Without rain, my rays are overbearing. Without my light, humans are lost without my guidance. In those few places where my rays don’t reach the entire globe of, they have many dark nights…

  • Hindsight From Death

    Looking back on life I have a lot of regrets. I never thought I would die with regrets. I even regret dying with regrets. I lost all the people I love and that loved me back. I wish I told more people how much I appreciated them being in my…

  • Shadows

    Shadows are always there even when not seen. Always around and there for us. Maybe Peter Pan was right, shadows have a life of their own. Like Peter, we might have to free ourselves from our shadow, or maybe it’s there to poke fun at.

  • Stealing Death

    I’m getting tired of this… But of course I am, it’s been about two hundred fucking years and I’m still here, as expected, living forever, just as I assumed I would. It was about fifty years ago when I started to regret my master plan, it all seemed so simple;…

  • Two Paths Ahead

    I expected that at some point I would come across a fork in the path. What I did not expect was figuring out which of the two ways I should keep walking along. I look up and try to see what is up ahead of each path. The left one…

  • Sinking Ship

    Going down into the ocean beneath. Screams echo out from my vessel into the depths of the vast and empty ocean I am surrounded by. I hear the whispers of the captain with his first mate. The first mate is pleading to the captain to admit he made a mistake…

  • Natural Disasters

    “Aaaaaaaachooooooooo” The world all around me shakes as my sneeze erupts. As do the volcanos across Hawaii. A lot of people blame me for their problems. I can’t help that I have allergies to their artificial creations. The crust beneath me and my tectonic joints rumble and clatter within my…

  • Magic Raindrops

    The rain trickles down my window pane. I am thankful I am shielded by the warmth inside. A thought slips into my consciousness, but these thoughts only occur when it rains. Something in me is telling me to run outside with my arms open wide to the sky and embrace…
