Serial Friday ~ Arcadian Journey

Chapter Three The Arcadian wind blustered as Eni walked Stento up the main street. He strode boldly, proudly, is if he saw no reason for the restraints she was compelled to place around his legs. He ignored those who had come to watch, gawk or taunt him, as if they were the dregs of creation. […]

So today I begin Serial Friday with the opening pages of Arcadian Journey Please feel free to offer any comment on either piece. Prologue Two jumpships […]

One early morning on Tuesday last week I told you of the future, but did not speak I said I would write these words just now Although, I in no way explained just how Still, I imagined I would be able conceive Some mysterious way to make you believe I could not, cannot express this […]

What We Need?

Video games train us Violence, murder Hand eye coordination Mayhem’s future Except, perhaps We have not reached Reached far enough Into tomorrow Into all our tomorrows Extrapolated Final effects So much; too, too Too much Death, destruction A random boy Twelve-years-old Tells us He likes to play Play Leona Feminine, heroin A killing machine This […]
