Sandstorm Part 9 Kol was too exhausted to sleep. He absent mindedly lit a candle. A faint rattling came to his ears. The thought of a snake in his chambers made him sick. Then a foot appeared from behind a curtain. Kessa entered the room dancing. The rattle he heard was her tambourine. “What didContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”

I hate you!
You are the most annoying sound in the world. All I want is to stay all snuggly and warm. Why can’t I stay curled, my thoughts and feelings transformed. My bed is like a trusted friend. That perfect hug. Sleep, the realm of dreams does bend. My bed doesn’t care if I lay like aContinue reading “I hate you!”
The Revolt of 2050 Part 2
Switching to Sustainable Energy Windmills were pulled down or blown up. One of the funniest sights I saw was someone trying to pull a windmill down with a car.

Roosters in stereo
One of the first things I do in the morning, Cheekie has to go pee. Forewarning. As we trek through the yard, his bladder about to bombard – the ground in lots of different places. Multiple spaces. A sound fills the morning air. Do they dare? Back and forth. From across the creek. Every dayContinue reading “Roosters in stereo”

Sandstorm Part 8 “Nor do I. There is something about the water that she needs. If you notice, Rajaf has set up a way to heat it.

Got 19 e-mails. Deleted 11. Maybe I shouldn’t have deleted number 7? Lost in the mess. I’m not going to stress. Why? Why do you spam my guts out? It really makes me want to pout. 560 ‘junk’ e-mails.

Once there was Darkness

Kol knew the Bejhar were everywhere. He just wasn’t sure where. Two climbed onto the beach from checking theContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”
Extinct
Science fiction buff at heart. Where do we start? At the beginning or the end? Into a tail spin should we send? The double edge sword; not of metal or of brass. But it will kick our collective – – -. A.I. will bring about some mighty impressive tools. Surely, it will not be soContinue reading “Extinct”
