RESILIENCE, CONTEST ENTRY
Like a waking dream, the Sky-eater came to me again last night. There was no time to prepare myself as the too-terribly-familiar presence of the nightmare in the sky invaded me, forced its way inside me, the monumental psychic girth of its presence worming into my mind, touching and scraping at the insides of my skull with cruel, questing fingers. Searching me, my thoughts, in what was our most intimate ritual, this nightly game of keep-away.

Barns Red Whisper
That faint red hue, like a mist over a bog. It calls out every night, like an instinct that tells someone’s watching. I try not to indulge, my grandfather says there is no light, it’s just another barn, unused for decades. It mystifies me he doesn’t see what I do, although the barn is miles away I see it as if it were on our own lot. Working the fields in the day it plays its siren song, like a mosquito buzzing past my ear but smoother. I can feel it play around my ankles, crawl up my shirt, whizz past my nose, these slight alluring tingles like a woman trying to seduce a potential mate with the caress of her finger. I feel it glide across my skin and it always lifts off in the direction of the barn.

The Little Blue Ribbon Part 3
I sit at work bored. It's Friday, I have nothing to do for the weekend, and I don't want to spend the weekend alone, nor do I want to go to a bar. "What do I do?" I murmur out loud. My co-worker and long-time friend Becky sitting across from me, says, "How about something different for a change?" I laugh, thinking to myself, "I'm gay, trust me, different I've been doing for a long time. But I held my tongue." I replied, "Like?" She added. "Try this, think of a place you would love to go, and you were leaving that day; then ask yourself what would be that one thing I would regret not doing. Then do that." I Laugh and look over my glasses at her and say, "Is that a dare?" She smiles, "Kinda." I reply, "You know me, and you know how this is going to end." "I do, and that's why I love you, Jed. You do the stuff." She smiles and sits down.

*Disclaimer: This story was written using a technique learned for writing exercizes. A timer was set for 10 minutes, and written without an idea or prompt to work from. For the sake of the experiment, I did not read the story over once I finished writing or do any editing -- & submitted almost immediately after writing out of curiosity for others opinion on the result. At some point, I may eventually do proper editing and polishing and resubmit, possibly in a new submission for the purpose of comparison. Please enjoy the product of this experiment! I would love to know what you think!
