In the lead up to the announcement of Issue II, we will be releasing three prompts this week. These prompts hint slightly at the overarching theme of Issue II.
Post your response in the comments below so we can reblog our favourites next week.
Happy writing!
GODS IN LOVE
In my portion of the universe,
young females are forbidden
to step out of homes while dusk,
lest they fall target to amorous
gods wandering the earth at that
time betwixt day and night to
spot virgins in their entire spell
along with the downing sun.
And every woman, I affirm
did step outside the threshold
while dusk seeking her god
not once but numerous times,
crimson and burning in love,
just to sight a god in human form.
How could Zeus guise himself
Other than the swan?
happy Wednesday love from LA and thanks for the opportunity ❤

Paradise Regained
Cormorants sit like Satan,
on top of the knowledge tree,
like unholy fruit standing,
where the light should be.
The cathedral of my soul,
contains those dark corners,
where stained light will not stroll,
only occasional mourners.
The sporadic steady light.
comes from you and me
sparkling in the twilight,
it is just enough to see.
Hi
Here is mine
The Night Club Door
Leaping With Faith
We feel free again
out here on the wild heath
and we’re whirling and twirling
like a dervish
with the devil in us
reclaiming our wildness
that was hidden for so long
when we were
just hanging on
our spirits sapped
at home alone.
But we’re out now
feeling reckless
with excitement,
jumping for joy
leaping with faith
ready to go again.
