"There's something you want to say. Out with it." "Why did I get #charcoal in my Christmas stocking?" "You can use it for soap." "This isn't what I had in mind when I asked for creative gifts." "It's what you get when you unleash this mind." "Please leash it." #vss365

Sir Ian McKellan! I even had this art of him as an old knight, because I hear his voice reading every line of dialogue I write!

Sunset crept over a broken field. Men lay motionless in the mud or hung limply from spikes and nooses. Rays of #rufous light pierced the weakening rain clouds. Dousing the crimson field in a sickly rusted hue. The crows sang a lament of thanks, iridescent in the gloom. #vss365

The people of Cionct gathered to gawk at the beast that had harassed them every night for weeks. It was a mottled wolf, bigger than a horse. Blood dripped from three rows of savage fangs, pooling with a #rufous fluid the Elder identified as acid. "Garn," the elder grunted #vss365

"Next item. The guild of horn carvers is under #boycott again. It appears the cities Naovo are refusing to provide horns until a "fair" price can be negotiated. The guild requests an exemption to the livestock ban within city limits until the Nao "Come to their senses"" #vss365

"We provided a variety of #sensuous experiences," Aubergine said. "What'll you have, Honeydew? Grilled will make your favorite meal. Shanks will mix your favorite alcoholic drink. And I can... well, you know." "What does Brisket do?" "Uhh... massage?" "I'll take him!" #vss365

My life is now A #sensuous journey Cuz I lost My fear to feel Years I’d spent With my heart imprisoned In chastity belt Made of steel But now I find U luv Strong-Silent-Types Feelings Ain’t part of The Deal & so I sit here Awash in hot tears Pierced by ur 6” high-heels #vss365

"Nothing is more #sensuous than an evening at the baths." "I fear you're thinking of a different word, Cress." "Not partial to hot oil then?" "Unpartial to the unclad." "Ah, to the sauna then. Can't whine about what you can't see." "That is where you're wrong, as always." #vss365

Old man hobbles Down the pier We call him Peg Leg Pete Rumors how He got that #nub Grow fierce With each repeat Some say Twas war injury Others Say twas shark’s treat I know It’s diabetes— But secret I’ll e’er keep Cuz I crewed On candy heist That ruined His old feet #vss365

Distant streams of silvery liquid sloughed their way down a small bank. As if a babbling brook had become #languid, refusing to be hurried "Let's get a closer look at that muck. I want a sample." "I'll save you some time. It's quicksilver, now move." "hmp, no fun at all!" #vss365

#languid language, words in stasis. Using keys to build their faces. Fingers bent by molding men. Made and sent to journey's end. Facsimile fate of paper god. Knowingly made, eternally flawed. #vss365 #poem #poetry

This Is The Way Forged, my tales In fire’s hot veils Like Mandalorian steel Now armor-sheathed Armed with my pen I fight To make you feel My stories are A martial art I write— You make it real From #languid love To mystery We fight To the reveal… #vss365

#dairy in flesh of a life fulfilled. Etched in lines where blood was spilled. Scored and slash and even burned. Marks and signs of lessons learned. A badge of pride, or so some say. Ne'er to ever fade away. #vss365

My twitter keeps reverting to the light theme from the dark one after I close my broswer. help?

Finally back on twitter. I changed jobs to one where I do 12 hour factory shifts but I make way more now and actually work less days somehow. Maybe I'll find my rhythm in the next few weeks and start posting regularly again.

Little is as welcome a sight to explorers of a ferae as that of a fain. These #glades are the only places where light pierces the canopy; and no beast willingly trespasses the ring of soft grass that marks it's bounds. Only under a full moon does this protection waver. #vss365

"the forms are fine. It's the details that make a thing ugly."
