How he feels
Modern Romantic Microfiction
- This is for Raymond G. Taylor's Oh Jeff Challenge.
************************************************************
“Oh Jeff…I love you too…but I am an AI-powered android.”
Jeff blinked. She grinned.
“Didn’t you notice my responses? They’ve no feeling.”
His heart palpitated as he remembered how many times he asked her how much she loved him.
“So none of it…”
She shrugged and handed him a small metal box. “I really love you though. Here’s my heart.”
She kissed him, and he put the metal box aside.

FPS: The Last Flame Challenge Winners
Welcome to our first Winners Announcement of the year and to the final challenge in the Fall Poetry Series. The Last Flame invited writers to sit with endings, using fire as a central image to consider what remains when something burns out: ash, warmth, memory, silence, or the faint promise of what comes next. The strongest pieces treated endings as gradual rather than sudden, allowing them to flicker, dim, and linger.
