    The Butterfly with the Artificial Wing

      I sit here in silence as I watch my mother go through the ceremonial lighting of the candle. This is not something bad; it is the norm for our family. Once a year, we all, the female patriarchy of...

    • Brilliantly penned, Fia. Into the book it belongs! This was incredible storytelling, and I even welled up with tears, I knew that the Butterfly and professor was a metaphor for something really going on. Powerful ending, the foreshadowing was precisely executed. Thank you for sharing. Appreciate you.

      • Thanks, Damian. I was trying to think how a young person would convey what is going on in their own way. Not all of them come straight out and say anything.

    • Truly beautiful.

    • Marvelous write. Well done.

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. That’s a tough one my friend, I have anxiety, depression, and was an alcoholic. It’s not the same as what you’re going through. But I do know how it feels to be in the trenches fighting for sanity and hope. Thanks for sharing. Appreciate you.

    • I truly feel for you, Daniel. I know what it’s like to pray for darkness. There is hope, just keep going, my friend.

      There is a song your piece reminds me of.

      “But it’s too late to go back
      I can see the darkness through the cracks.
      Daylight fading, I curse the breaking.
      The day is gone”

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. I know what’s it like to be a creature of night, incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

    Touched By An Angel

         This sooty-faced angel who visited me in childhood, possessed no angelic wings...        Touched once by the black angel of my childhood, this person was someone I trusted, someone I loved (but no more), and someone who...
