Dreaded Deepest Darkness . Content Warning.
Dreaded deepest darkness, dragging me down deeper into the dirt, dust, and dross Accepting my fate is easier than fighting my dark-shadowed destiny

Distraction Takes Its Toll. Content Warning.
"Do you smell that?" said Liten Nese, an ugly, bald troll to Sarkastisk , an equally ugly and bald troll. "It smells like blood" he sniffed, looking down and around him.

Asking for the Poor
Who needs one billion? Why do you need more and more? Asking for the poor. * Thanks for reading! This was a follow-up really to my Two Daft Billionaires poem and the discussion in the comments section that I had with fellow creator Sara Wilson.

My Name is Paul.... Top Story - July 2023.
Author's Note: This is Em Starr's fault, as evidenced in the comment section of a recent poem I published called Do You Ever? So all the blame should be delivered to her.

Festering feverish feelings without relief - despite how hard Im try. Ripping and rupturing my concentration, roping me into an irritating cycle

Letter From America - The Heartbreaking Backstory
When I was younger (or wee, as I would say, as a Scot), I always loved the song Letter From America by The Proclaimers, taken from their debut album, This is the Story, in 1987. It sounded like a poignant song about someone who had emigrated from Scotland to Canada. To the casual listener, I guess that’s a fair estimation. It speaks about missing Scotland when you’re away from it (something we Scots have a habit of doing – listen to Dougie MacLean’s Caledonia for further evidence).
