Desert Snake
Sands swept to the sides, Dry skin picked from scales, The vultures circle. A/N: This is once again a little haiku to space between larger stories - I hope you enjoyed! I very much enjoyed writing it, I was hosting my writing club when I did so! I am writing several projects right now, and I feel I am falling in love with it all over again! -TWW

The Snake and the Owl
There was once a snake, who lived on a hill. All the other animals who lived there avoided him, whispering poisonous rumours to each other. As the snake slithered through his day, the hisses burrowed into his ears, sticking to him like tree resin.

The Market
There was once a thief at a market, who took as much as he could, from whoever he could. One day, the thief saw a beautiful charm. Thick bands of leather woven together holding 3 jewels, sparkling in the sun. One amber, one green, and one blue. It sat on an old stall made of splintered wood. An elderly woman sat on a crooked stool behind it overseeing the sale of her wares. The thief saw her hand reach for some gold coin being passed over in exchange for a crow feather charm. He briefly wondered how hands as stiff and disjointed as hers could possibly create such delicate and fetching items.

Grey
Dour and grey they stomp, Dirty charcoal smudges up, The canvas unseen. A/N: Hello there once again! Sorry for another extended leave of absence - I had another unfortunate health decline. Happy to be back though! I wanted this haiku to have a double meaning. While I am admiring the dark and oppressive yet temporary stormy clouds, I am also self-reflecting on a battle with depression. Some days, I can't see the blue sky - and that's okay - natural even. The storms will clear my canvas once again <3 I can't wait to have a lovely autumn reading session to catch up with what you have all been writing! -TWW

Burst. Top Story - October 2024. Content Warning.
Well well well, fancy seeing you here! I know it has been a few weeks since my last post but it's been a turbulent time as those of you who read my author's notes will know. This is what this 'blog' story is about. I have my diagnosis!
