I felt my #breath slow as I sank deeper into the meditation.
In my minds eye a familiar door appeared; I turned the handle to open it, & stepped through into the #astral #realm.
I turned to look back through the door at my resting body. Smiled.
That never got old.

A lost #troubadour
found our little #lighthouse. He
had songs, & a board;

to talk to spirits,
he said. When the ocean turned from #susurrus to

#procellus we knew:
the board was infected with
Evil. It claimed us.

Thank you very much, I loved the pic!! Hope you have an awesome week too 🥳

I loved camping for the return it offered to an almost #primordial state: just nature & me.
When society collapsed, others sought my help.
Lasted a week before I ensured I was the last one #awake; fled.
Left a #letter & some fruit, though.
Hope they made it.

Dean’s #dad saw him #slash
His first #graffiti on the
wall: a #seagull. Young

Dean froze like a #deer
in headlights, but his dad winked. Kept it a secret.

Dean would #treasure that
moment, & his dad. Both let
him find his true #self.

Thank you ☺️, I’m glad it resonated 🌊 💙

Kaia grew up by the ocean, & missed it when she moved away.
She found comfort, though, in the old #oak near her garden #shed;
heard the ocean’s #waves in the rustling of its leaves.
On windy days, Kaia would close her eyes & swear she could smell salt in the air.

#Cork popped on evil
(was it ever contained?) it
roils, #amorphous

‘til it finds #shape in
ideas; in action &
inaction; in blood

it lets #air_dry on
a poor #daffodil, on a
#skyscraper, on souls.

🗡️ 💀 😜

Thank you 😆! Loved the prompt, and the gif 🎊

Mel was enjoying the beach when she saw a glint in the #sand.
She used her hand to #scrape some of it free; kept digging.
#Wow, Mel thought, admiring the #sword she’d unearthed.
Then she noticed the skeletal fingers grasping it.

One of them twitched.

I used to bottle up my feelings, & was great at keeping them deep inside…until the day they began to fight back.
They bubbled up, started to split my #skin in an effort to #transcend captivity—I let them out in a long, agonizing #shout instead. Now they fly free.

On a hike, Ron found a #bloodstone under a tree; pocketed it.
#Small lights began to dance around him—he gasped when they coalesced into a #luminous Being.
“You stole my offering,” it said, “I demand payment in blood.”
With a #twist of its hand, Ron exploded.

Mina was tired, but also #single & ready to mingle. She went out, came back with a guy.
Kissed him; felt her energy #rejuvenate as her lips absorbed his life force.
“So kind of you to #share,” Mina told his husk as she let it go.
It slid to the floor; disintegrated.

Ann’s car was old; it’s
#speaker crackled, the exhaust
#pipe rattled, & the

Windows squeaked. She loved
each #flaw however—they gave
her vehicular

#sanctuary a
more vintage, #authentic feel:
her favourite vibe.

The statue stood like
a #sentinel, guarding the
graveyard. #Someone broke

in, damaged a grave.
An unseen force tossed the guy
In the air like he

was a #feather— the
landing broke his #flimsy neck.
#Caution signs went up.

After a bad day, I sought #solace in nature. On the trail a #wolf appeared before me, hunched low.
She lunged at -no, past!- me; bit into a guy I hadn’t seen.
He fled, dropping zip ties.
I’d begun to panic, but her gaze made me #stop.
“Thank you,” I said.
She winked.

Hope you also had a great Tuesday, and that Wednesday finds you well too 😄🫶!

At #Spring #Carnival
I was hit by #deja_vu;
dream tried to #forewarn

of danger, but I
decided: wasn’t true. Til
the foaming clown bit

down—right on my ass!
Turns out, he had #rabies, &
also zero #class.

#vss365 #vssdaily #inkMine #blueskyrelay #horrorprompt #haikuhorrorprompt

Thank you 😄!

The sailor was #aloof
and honestly, kind of a goof.
Warned him his ship wouldn’t #fit,
but that got him in a #stupid snit.
So in he went to the #strait—
& for a rescue, he had to wait.

“This is #silly,” Dan protested, as Tom sat him down & made him #comfortable, “it’s a #splinter!”
“Could get infected,” Tom countered, getting tweezers.
When it was over, Dan kissed him in thanks—& added gardening gloves to their wedding registry. He’d make them work.

A while labrahuahua snuggles into her gray fluffy bed, basking in a sunbeam.

Dee sighed contentedly as she snuggled into her bed.
The #key to joy, it seemed to her, was in the little things—like successfully #plotting to have her humans move the bed to a window, or the #peaceful warmth of a #sunbeam.
Dee’s sighs soon turned to snores.

Thank you 😄! 🧣😵
Awesome pic

Logic #absent, he
made an #adventurous #vow:
He’d climb the tower,
#tie his #scarf to the top. It
became his #final act (slipped).

Hal felt the pressures of #independence, but shielded with #indifference; projected a #vision of what he considered #strength.
One day Hal woke in pain: saw a deep #lacuna in his femur.
His body had begun to cave to the pressures he’d ignored.

It was her Dad’s #wedding day,
& Boots had lots to say.
She mewled, she meowed;
“Aw!” went the stupid crowd.
Boots was salty as #brine:
“Dad,” she wailed, “is mine!”
She stomped her #paws,
readied her #claws—
then the bride made a vow
to love Boots as her own; wow😻

I sighed; I’m #protective of Ivy, not #possessive!
Her family staged an intervention, but it was hurting Ivy.
I made the lights #glitch; they ignored it.
I took physical form—threw the priest out.
The rest ran.
Exorcism over before it became #murder.
See? Protective.

Thank you 😄💕
