I stand under the ceraceous film of a pensive moon
Black eyes indignant, lips peeled back to snare, hands
Resetting the pulse of an anemic mistress. In shadows
Stalled by the advance of daylight, I shape nightmares
Of sonance and silhouette, displacing puritanical ideals
With a bestial hunger for degrading sex

I thought of the woman as the victim of a vampire or incubus type creature. I wrote in the villain’s perspective which makes this a rather strange piece of writing haha
Submission for
Oh… ‘bestial hunger’- amazing.
Eerie, dark and luscious writing. Loved it. π
Thank you so much that makes me so happy!
Wow, love this, perfectly visceral! π π
Yay! I am so glad =) Thank you
And I wrote same thing but oposite situations, just yesterday….
Did you seriously? Are you inside my head or I am inside yours?
I posted this today but it was written yesterday also haha
Yeah, reading yours it could so easily be a complete continuance of mine.
When same patterns find each other,they make a cloth, I think it is something like that:) I realised just now my mail did not reach you, so have to retype it all again π
I hate when I have to retype everything. We are plugged into the same signals, I look forward to seeing yours
You have such a beautiful way with words. And the grotesque becomes the sublime.
Awwww that is incredibly sweet thank you so much =)
well now…that was rather dark…sonance and silhouette…like how they play together…cool little short…
Thanks Brian =) It was quite dark
It sounds like a nightmare waiting to enter the mind of its victim.
Thanks Laurie =) It does have the nightmare quality I was thinking of dreams when I wrote it
You’re welcome. It stands by your bed while you sleep. *shiver*
It is incredible what you can do with these visual prompts. Beautiful interpretation.
Thank you so much, visual prompts are fun though sometimes really really hard
Pretty sinister and creepy. I’m not too crazy about the last line. I think it should just end on “bestial hunger” but everything else is pretty good. I was thinking that the speaker was some sort of vampire and then I saw that your comment confirmed this. I think you did a good job.
Thanks Andrew I was more happy with beginning than the ending as well =)
Darkly beautiful, love “displacing puritanical ideals” and “Resetting the pulse of an anemic mistress”
Thank you Melanie that makes me so happy!
