《grass whistle ~ poetry》A gull-ible Scene
Advertisement
Poets pub picture prompt
Where are the old friends now?
With their pipes and bad Jokes,
White hair and stretched skin, for
Whom staring at the gull was an escapade
On the shore that washed their feet,
Under the summer sun shining bright,
Betting all their retirement money
On whose head the gull will crap today!
The gull of the sea is ready game,
But the friends, alas! Are missing,
Is it an aftermath of the smoke rings
Or a symptom of their vile children
But the gull is sharp at vespers nine
Like the albatross to the ancient mariners,
Is this emptiness among this vast ocean
Just another ill thought misfire?
'tross not gull yet gross and dull
For the airborne friend that looks on,
Summer is dim and sea is stupor
As the gull flies o'er the empty chairs...
~Ajay
A/N- The fourth stanza refers to the 'Rime of an ancient mariner' by Samuel Coleridge

FoxStone
Debut: the day every young gentleperson of age gathers to receive their Spirit Blessing and shift for the first time into their second form. Except for those who don't. Beatrice's worst fear is to be one of the unlucky few trapped perpetually in a human body, cut off from the magic of the spirits and unfit for any respectable pack or pride. But when the time comes to face her fear, the outcome is one she never could have imagined. Be warned, this story is some highly experimental fluff—an unapologetically girly, unrelentingly bisexual, Regency/Victorian-ish fantasy mish-mash. It does have a dark side, though, so don’t come in expecting all sunshine and roses. Worthy of note, given the reputation of shifter stories: there will be no explicit sex in this tale. There will, however, be lots of polyamorous romance, necromancy, portal magic, capricious spirits, elemental mages, an unconventional take on shifters and a highly ordered society built around their existence.

One that will only lead to a moment of satisfaction, and a lifetime of regret. Will he be able to continue down this path until the end? Or will he turn back before it’s too late? To forgive and forget or to hold onto hate and seek revenge? What will he choose? ------------------ I'll be honest with everyone here, I can't write right now. Like I don't mean can't as in I'm disabled and literally can't do it, but I mean can't as in I have other things I gotta do at the moment. So I'm going into hiatus for a while and will be back sometime in the fall of 2021.

Superhuman Magus
A story about an anti-hero guy among righteous people fighting against villains disturbing peace of his land. That's how the story unfolds. Interesting, right? Higher Races rules over lower human/sub-human races! The protoganist believes Higher Race took away his family. But he is powerless. So, he gave up so that he could live a harmless life. But fate didn't allow him to do so as it gave him a Supernatural power called 'Avasci'. But that wasn't the end as he found something else within him, something that allows him to defy his human limits. But nothing good comes without a price, balance is an universal law. Will Eason defy his limits while pursuing after his parents? Or will he lose the motivation to do so and selfishly pursue after power? >>NOTE: This is my first novel, so go easy on me with the typos and grammar mistakes.Release Time : Minimum=>1 chapter(good plot)/weekI will release more if I get enough time >>Title Name: The first title name was called Limits Defying Human which is basically the theme of the story. Superhuman Magus is a title that is based on a concept. Can't say more as it's a spoiler. I prefer the first title but it's just that the current title might attract more people. First title didn't make the novel seem like it's fantasy based. >>Motivation to create Novel: I created this novel to implement the vast imaginations I had while I was not creating a novel. So, there will be a lot of extreme imaginations. Most of these imaginations can only be implemented afterwards as it's a story. So it will take a while.
