Bloom by immortality-in-words, literature

Literature

Bloom

I have heart strings playing to the tune of your spinal chords - and I'm trying to cut every single one of them. The photos from my camera throat may be negatives, but my chemicals just develop them differently - a concoction of bad memories, of nightmares and photos pushed face down into the desk in the middle of the night in a sweat - ever since the time regret started to bloom like a corpse flower in my chest, my words have been poisonous, passive-aggressive pin pricks; making you sad isn't a pastime; it's a cry for cease and desist; look at the photos ejecting from my lips - pretend you were me tonight and see them de

Success by immortality-in-words, literature

Literature

Success

Words around me ring of success, quantifiable just as much as it is buyable, at the cost of incomplete dreams, perfection, when all that is real is imperfection, and all we want is to dance down dirt roads and find truth in the dust that makes its home on our skin, kicked up by our sub-par moves, but we've got a rhythm when no one is watching us, when no pupil can carpe our diem, only rain puddles to splash in,, rippling funhouse mirrors Sometimes the most success you can quantify is how high you can jump and I have a record of a bajillion feet.

Literature

NaPoWriMo 7 -Lord of the Flies

We were born into this world, learned the meaning of hate before we heard the word 'gay', 'faggot' boxed our ears before 'homosexual' ever could. We were placed in our pink and blue baby suits, tucked into our race car and flower bedsheets - Congratulations, it's a girl. Congratulations, it's a dyke. I remember that night, my mother's eyes frozen in fear at her 'just confused' daughter, that needed a ride to a date, her daughter, who (she thought) would be scorned by peers never hold public office never get into a good college not be allowed to any more

the progression of love by immortality-in-words, literature

Literature

the progression of love

It began Freshman year, US History Class, 6th period, First Day of Highschool I'd never seen you before, and knew nothing about you. My body felt like a bundle of tightly tangled threads, small and a mess, and, if pulled in the wrong way, sure to snap. When I saw you, I felt myself unwind, just a little bit. I wanted to know you more. --- They year passed in silence and awkward social skills, smiles and waves unseen and words muttered too quiet to hear. I would sometimes see you in the hallways, walking by, and I would want to say something, but was unsure as to whether I should. You were always holding a smile, on your lips o

Between Alaska and Russia

I know those coasts. I remember, it was an long time ago, but I do remember those coasts. They were flat and motionless in the textbook in my Geography class, but I still know them. So that's where I am now. I'm right between Alaska and Russia. I remember when someone told me you could travel between Russia and Alaska in a hot air balloon in under 20 minutes. I didn't believe him, and I never cared to really check whether it was true or not. That was highschool. Maybe I'll find out today, if island travels at the same speed as hot air balloon. As I look over the side, I can just barely see the waves down below. They look like ripples, sm

Como Crecer Alas

Todo el tiempo contigo - dulce, como anticongelante que me manejó en los días invernales; salvo del frio, salvo de dolor, de verdad; yo estaba dormiendo en un ataud de mariposa, hermosa; felizmente en los sueños sobre el libertad de amor, cuándo en realidad - atado en una jaula, ahora estaba ido desaparacido desaparacido a- d i o s ; ahora tengo alas, pintado con ojos

Literature

NaPoWriMo 13 - Dubie

A kiss is like a dress falling off a tall building, (and you're in it), like a letter slipped into a locker, it can only be taken back with a crowbar and enough regrets; it is a morning coffee so hot, your tongue recoils; take a sip again, take that love- letter, place it, wrinkled, right into her hand, that dressed red envelope. Let go of the windowsill.

Literature

to map sunrises...

one day I will tell my daughter to touch herself before she ever lets a man do it for her, to learn her body-secrets and the shape of pleasure. I will tell her that San Francisco always keeps your heart. that her skin is a blank canvas, that hair grows, the value of the right kind of disrespect. that the older we get, the more we need the people who knew us when we were young. I will tell my daughter to give away the secrets that keep her up at night, and that there is never a wrong time to love someone, but sometimes a wrong way. I will teach my daughter to travel without makeup; that sometimes forever means morning and sometime

Where the Desert Sleeps by completeaccident, literature

Where the Desert Sleeps

I knew the miles before the markers, I found the west by walking with the sun. I said, there are lizards in my blood, there is sandstone in my teeth. I said, I am the light's daughter, I am a cactus wren. This is my home among the thorns. I said to trees, to starlight, I said to graves and streets and men, and you said, Girlchild, I live too far out in the desert. I whispered into corners, I wove into papyrus: I am the light's daughter, I am a cactus wren, I raised my hand from lifetimes of loving, died and dried to crispy bones so you would find me still with your name between my teeth, and you said, The desert has me. It

Tox'sStory- A Hollow Victory

So I'm going to try to re-shape Toxic's story. Sorry ^^; 'The Operation' was a bit to climatic, and ended with a dumb cliff hanger. THIS will be much more fasinating, I assure you. :P Chapter 1 Hollow Victory The moon flickered overhead as the wild winds hurled the branches of the trees in every direction. The moaning winds swirled around her head and filled her ears, making Keesh flatten them in order to chase the annoying feeling away, even though her light gray fur was still flattened by the wind. She flicked her tail and stared at the scene before her. She knew the rumors about this forest were dangerous ones, warning all to never ent

making my way home.

you stare (sadly) at the answering machine as it beeps and as his (hollow, yet hopeful) voice fills up the room. "i'm on my way home; on the highway right now." you listen to his (unsteady) breathing for a while before the line clicks. you head to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee (out of habit), and you turn the air conditioner on (because he hates the heat) so it'll be more comfortable. you find yourself on the floor in the living room, photo albums on your lap, and you trace a (trembling) finger over glossy captures. then you hear a key (fumbling) in the lock, and you spring up. he enters, and you see his hand tighten aroun

Crossing: Prologue

Prologue The eastern horizon was a dark, gray blue with clouds that smudged it with a dull pink that was even grayer. The constant shade weaved through the skies from east to west as the skies clung to the last bit of the suns light as it moved behind the horizon. The clouds, however, and the lack of black to contrast the pale silver of the stars and moon, made them impossible to see, yet it was dark enough to mask figures with long shadows. The alleys of the city below were pitch black, and due to the chill left by the rain earlier that day, city sounds of people talking, footsteps tapping, and cars roaring were seldom, and the cl

I'M BACK.... SORT OF.

0 min read

It's been a while, deviantArt. :D But I have returned! Sorta. I won't be that active, but I gave you guys some stuff to read, and hopefully I'll remember to give you more. ;) Life has changed a lot. Last time I was active here, I was as peachy as I'd ever been. Since then, I went through depression, self-mutilation, and half-assed suicide attempts. But now I'm peachy again. :D Thanks to life revisions and psychologist appointments, and art. The sweet catharsis of art. Glad to be back.

I think I posted this journal before but it didn't go through... So, it's been a while, but helllo watchers! (If I have any left after all this time.) NaPoWriMo is coming soon, but I dunno if I'll be posting my pieces on dA this time. I may be posting them on my old blog, since I registered it with napowrimo.net . So, if you guys miss my writing (ego, ego, ego), then there it will be. http://lessonofthebutterfly.blogspot.com/ Is anyone else participating?

We quite understand your frustration with our method of advertising. We have had this same experience with other people spaming our websites, in fact, and understand how this can be frustrating.

As we have just created this site and want it to be more well-known, because it is in a new and creative format, we have done many things to advertise. We have, actually, already made our own group and and made deviations concerning our website. Thank you, however, for your advice in advertising methods; it is much appreciated, though not necessarily new for us. We understand your frustration, and we apologize for seeming immature in our advertising; I assure you, we are much more creative and mature than we appear through this method of advertisement, and we hope that you are not offended in any way by our advertisement, as it was not meant to be offensive.

Thank you,
The WaterCatOwners

No offense taken. I simply hope that you will try to heed the desires of others in the future. I believe that any advertisement ought to be reciprocated, or it is merely a form of leeching, for lack of a savory term. Perhaps try affiliating as well, as opposed to spamming. My site became as popular as it is simply by those methods, and not once have I spammed another site. I recommend looking up some of the more popular sites, and requesting affiliation. Otherwise, it is, in a sense, taking advantage of the hard work of others.
