The Game. Top Story - October 2024. Content Warning.
My head throbs. As my senses begin to return, I realize I'm intensely cold - and I smell something burning. Not wood; more like – yes, like meat. A shudder overtakes me and I realize I'm naked, and somehow suspended, hanging by bound wrists, but my feet are flat on something. What the fuck?

Desideratum
My Word: desideratum: something which is desired My connection: My ties to this word evolved from the plural form, which many readers may recognize: Desiderata (Things Desired), a poem steeped in legend for some time. It was purported to have been found on a church pew or scrawled a church wall by an anonymous author. This stemmed from the distribution of printed copies by a pastor to the members of his congregation, after which the members mistook it for an ancient church inscription. That bit of trivia is completely unnecessary, of course, but for me, it adds some charm to the text.
