Once I was just a silhouette,
a #shadow, a stranger in
a dark cloak, afraid of
the sunrise. But
the sun didn't erase me,
it gently took down my hood
and gave me light and colours.
Now I walk in the day
with a smile and
an eternal sunburn.

I feel your breath
Upon my shoulder blades bare
It’s a #conundrum my brain dares

But the heart knows
What the heart knows
Feeling the ghost of you

#vss365 For days, he'd hung on, intent on cracking the last clue. The paper beside him.
His wounds were too severe to move him & we were still shoring the roof, to prevent another rock fall.
"Retired miner... 3-across." He said, then died.
His foreman, held his hand "A right #conundrum there Doug."

What would happen
if a Snake swallowed it's tail?
If a Slug had a shell
would you call it a Snail?
If our Knees bent opposing,
am I right in supposing,
a chair wouldn't do for our bottoms?
All these #conumdrums,
make our lives less humdrum,
what came first
the mouse or the egg?

The game practically overflowed with puzzles and the odd #conundrum. What kind of game like it didn’t have a wild variety of such tests of imagination and intelligence?

Rory enjoyed them, up to a point, so long as they weren’t ridiculously hard and too many of them in a short period.

How to keep a bunch of rogues and scoundrels working together without killing each other? Now that was a #conundrum for the ages, but Dylan did his best under tough conditions.

This was only one fast reaction force throughout the systems. He just had all the belligerent and cocky ones.

The process of creating alchemical concoctions involved a lot of words that Rory only vaguely understood to begin with & only understood a little better when he looked online. Such as #sublimate.

He knew it was about change, so why they didn’t say β€˜change’, he couldn’t begin to understand.

#vss365 Their mistress was mercurial and oft given to #caprice. Her flights of fancy were legendary. After impaling the entirety of the brotherhood for their refusal to take a knee, she donated their bulging war chest to their starved kin. Then pledged allegiance to their women...

Dance with #capricious glee,
sing till your voice is hoarse,
celebrate your youth.
Tomorrow isn't far away,
aching bones,
cynicism, sadness
and moral decay.
Time is not your friend,
but a burden in disguise.
One day you're young and juicy,
next day, dry, bitter, but wise.

As he always expected when dealing with those in power, even for a small Faction, Dylan expected more than a little #caprice, changeable minds and political moves in spite of the circumstances.

He hadn’t seen any of that. Yet. They were, to a one, laser-focussed on beating The Enemy.

Midnight blue black tresses
Fall down her porcelain skin
With a twinkle of #caprice
In her pool green wet eyes
Was it all a dream she thinks
But she’ll never know
Coz those butterflies left
Along with their kisses
Each gravestone around her
Covered in mosses

#vss365 The killer stood smiling over his fallen victim as they spoke their last words.
"There is one #eventuality that you can guarantee, time will catch up to all of us. "
As they died, the Victim's clenched hand released the grenade. The pin had been removed.
The killer's smiled faded.

I jumped inbetween
Storytelling, skipping ropes
Never tripping

Mum told facts
Dad told fiction
& I toldβ€”sung a mixture
To my younger siblings

This the #synthesis
Of my childhood
A lot missed

Flames of a fire #conspire
As they desire to aspire
To be hit by loves first kiss

Moon stars whisper
To destiny in a quick rush
Let them burn longer

Foreheads sweat & eyes flutter
Sometimes cupid overhears
Hijacking the plan with his arrows

Longing to be
Your Dictator
Made plans

#Conspired
With my

Then evil plan
Unfurled

But Reichs
They take commitment
And a focus

So scrap my plans
And go play golf…

Death and failure
blight my thoughts
and emotions.
Paranoia convinces my id,
and #conspires with weakness
to distort my sense of mortality.
Where have all the good times gone?
I smile through tears,
but life will be, will be.

#vss365 The Old ones slumber still. Their dream yearning exerts a tidal pull on our swollen simian brains.
Your emotions #conspire with your senses, to hide the source of your existential anxiety. Look away from the stars, or confront the abject loneliness of space. Or deal with the ...

Rory didn’t like the character as soon as he saw him. It was like he had developed an instinct for seeing the kind of characters that would think nothing of betraying people and secretly disappearing to #conspire with the enemy.

He kept his eyes on the man and trusted him not in the least.

Even after everything, the mountains of footage, the personal experiences, the loss of so many ships, none of the Factions took the existence of The Enemy seriously.

It was as though they had put aside differences to #conspire and let people die in ignorance of the very real threat.

1 2 3 4
All in a row
But who’s the #deliquent
These handsome devils 4
Booted & suited no one knows
Till the one with a speck of blood
Corner of mouth takes you home
And the other 3 use your home
As a satanic ritual spot
& of course you don’t make it
Back home

The atmosphere on the station was more than subdued, it was morose. Fearful. Few people talked, and those that did talk couldn’t stop themselves from #flinching at every announcement, every blaring ad on the holo-screens.

The people were all nervous, constantly, and for very good reasons.

Hark the crack of gunfire,
a bullet full of hate?
Or fired by the ignorant,
politically insane?
Full time soldier
or a terrorist,
depends which team
you picked.
Division driven through hatred,
#potentially, mentally sick.
Wave a flag, but make it White
don't let the wealthy make you fight

Everyone said Rory had the #potential to be a good duellist. And by everyone, he meant the four people in his regular group, who he wouldn’t trust to tell him the truth if they were magically compelled to. Even Katie. Especially Katie.

She liked to make him feel happy. Truth never helped.

It was a tiny signal. His antenna had only picked it up by accident, but it was there. A reply. The #potential for a rescue, but they had to reach each other and if Dylan wasted the last fuel in his thrusters, he could drift forever.

Fingers tapped the console before hitting the button.

"Bren, wake up! Where's ya wallet?" Riz said slapping my face with his paws.
"Riz, I'm absolutely #exhausted, can we not do this?" I replied.
"Wat?"
"I'll say no, you try to grab it anyway, I have to chase you. That's what I'm talking about."
"Yer no fun!"
