2026 PAD Challenge Day 13

my response is:

her movements were
       hypnotic
using only her hips she
       spoke volumes.

they call it belly dancing
but she made it hypnosis,
calling me to her,
creating a desire,
              that felt so forbidden.
I wanted to watch her move
until the whole world ended.

my response is :

the treasure I buried,
in the time capsule
wasn't something anyone
else wanted to add.

others added pictures
and bits of themselves,
I added words bound bright.

For when the capsule is dug up
and all of the treasure is found,
I want to speak to the future of
knowledge forgotten and thoughts
profound.

Sessions with a Demon by Finn O’Malley

Are you ready for your first session of therapy?

Everyone’s got issues, even demons.
When Ren, a Synergy demon, begins showing favor towards his human assignments, it raises alarm among his superiors. His punishment is one he never anticipated: Weekly sessions with famed demon therapist Dr. Lilith Madson.

A moral debacle ensues when an intriguing human recognizing his invisible presence on the streets and forces him to realize Lilith may have a wicked agenda of her own. Whose side will he take? The human with the all-consuming need for revenge or the delusional therapist determined to wreak havoc?

My Thoughts

Okay I shared the announcement of the sequel last week. so I thought it was a good time to review it on my own personal page. This book is a well written roller-coaster. the characters are strong and the plot is sound. by the end you are simply wishing for more – and more os about to be released.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 11

my response is:

perhaps it is the universe's joke
played on my life that I keep ending up
walking down the roads to nowhere.

I end up finding a way to somewhere
but not in the normal ways.
I have no tether to the right road
and truthfully I don't know if I want one,
for I have learned more from being lost
than I ever could if I followed some plan.

I will gladly walk those roads to nowhere
and find myself lost and learning
than to follow the plan and be
                               miserable.

BTW I posted a poem a couple of days ago and I said I was not sure if it belonged in kissed by Verse. I think it does not. I am going to open a new volume for it and this one…

Saturday Thoughts

This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.

I feel like though I am exhausted and still fighting with bronchitis (Joe’s been giving me nyquil so I can sleep)  I have done fairly well with my poetry this week. I got a little bit of words to the current works in progress.

I have been able to keep up with the Fae Corps Publishing PAD Challenge so far. I have looked daily at the writer’s digest prompts and found that none of them work for me this time. I usually do their pad. as long as I am writing I don’t care where the prompt is coming from.

Tuesday Tunes will be up this week, I know that I have been hit or miss where that is concerned.

my response is:

Keep using your artificial intelligence,
Though you know the consequences...
and when we live in a world without water
what will you do then?

The art and words you seek
can easily be gained from
a human being with no effects
to the environment,
but you don't seem to understand.

A sequel upcoming!

one of the Fae friends just announced on Facebook a sequel to Sessions with a Demon. Finn O’Malley has not so far put out any thing that we have not loved. The link below is her announcement, go show her some love and get the book in June. *ps Finn is also a Fae. She […]

A sequel upcoming!

2026 PAD Challenge Day 9

my response:

Let us live together
as shadow people,
outside of society
outside of the binary
outside of the world
              in its current state.

it was tried in the sixties
as communes but again
did human nature invade.

I do not want to be human
I do not want to be afraid
I just want to exist in my life
im my own way.
