Havoc In Heaven

Inside my own mind, I should find peaceBut you continue to press me, awaken the beastNow I'm a quarter past crazy and it's half past elevenSo pull up the covers-there's Havoc in Heaven. ==================This is a book where I plan on posting some of the poetry I've written, as well as other creative-writing pieces that may not quite fit into that category-a catch-all of sorts. I don't plan on maintaining a schedule for it; there will only be updates on the occasions I feel moved to write and share a poem, or to dig up one of my older ones. To paraphrase a certain commercial..."I don't always write poetry. But when I do, I put it in this book."Many thanks to fellow writer @SapphireCatLover for all the help and advice she's given me in putting this together. And I highly recommend her own poetry book here on Wattpad, Black Rose Poetry. (And she's not only highly talented, but also far more prolific a poetess than myself-the book is already up to 25 poems & counting!)…

Rather than having all of my short fiction stories posted separately, I wanted to have a place where I could compile some of them, especially the particularly brief kinds of works like flash fiction or micro fiction.It'll also save me from having to spend so much time on cover design, haha! [That cover may look fairly simple-even minimalist-but it was no minor feat to assemble.]Hopefully these pieces will inspire people, make them think, and just plain cut through all of this craziness, bull, and dishonesty floating around....Think of it as the prose counterpart to my "Havoc In Heaven" poetry collection.…

Dog Days: An Allegory

"It was my first summer volunteering at the rescue, and Brooke had assigned me to working with the dogs. She said the cats wouldn't be as forgiving. I didn't doubt her.We're not supposed to play favorites, but it didn't take me long to find one--a malamute mix named 'Pepper.' She was all tail wags and nips and fluff and mischief. After everything I'd been through, it was nice to just be silly, and have a furry friend I could be silly with. And then the day of the adoption fair came, and Pepper got snatched up just as quick as Brooke had predicted.I knew she was going to a good home, but still I thought nothing would be harder that summer than giving up Pepper. I was wrong."Dog Days--An Allegory…
