Short Story S1: P:5 - Ambrosia

     The touches were gentle, almost reverent among the throng of bodies around them. Like a spell had fallen upon them and them alone, their eyes caressed where their fingers could not. Chests heaved in shuddering breaths, skin prickled with extended senses and their mouths found one another as their hearts thundered with need. Nothing was forbidden in this place, the walls echoed with ecstasies that danced along the tight rope of the known world's taboos. Flesh thrummed against flesh, cries reverberated with one spiraling emotion after the next in an orchestra of undulated rhythms. Yet this was a step beyond even them.
     Their first taste of each other sparked like fireflies blossoming into existence in the veil of night. If they had not been so focused on one another, they would have seen the room shift around them. The canvases of flesh tones parted and swirled away to fade into a serenity of just them and a dark backdrop slowly being painted by their own colors. Fingers purchased into hips, breasts, backs and thighs with a desire to map their lines. Tongues brushed and lapped at the cocktails of flavors mixing from mouth, to skin, to sighs and moans. Each body curved and shifted against the other, caressing fine hairs along one another, building trails of sweat that kissed with each point of contact over and over. And as the void around them began to dance with droplets of their colored passion, they found a song even sirens could only faintly hear.
     So they flexed like the Eternals they were, their halos illuminating them in soft tendrils of golden waves as their bodies hummed the ever-longing tune. They arched and drew apart like rolling storm clouds consuming particles of matter and warping them with the paint of their actions, forming them into shapes denied only one thing. Finally, as they reached a crescendo, their breaths expelling from them in ragged departure, the Ambrosia of their want trailed down their thighs in hot release and gave life to the chaos they had created around them.
     The world burst into clarity and their hearts slowed to a tender rest as they wrapped around one another in a never ending cycle of yin and yang. Every flutter between them birthed a new being and they knew then and there Life would be their everlasting.

Short Story S:4 P 6 - "A Warm Welcome"

*****Here's another short story I wrote that, as far as I know (no response back), never got published*** She drew in a sharp breath, body tensing as her eyes flew open. I’m about to be abducted. The thought pierced through her skull. Hazel eyes flickering wildly to the single window in the darkened bedroom, peering intently, she waited in bated breath for something...but seconds ticked by and only blue moonlight greeted her. “For Pete’s sakes,” she muttered, muscles relaxing and eyes closing briefly in relief. Shaking her head at the absurd thought that had literally jolted her awake, Katherine stretched out her sleepy limbs, straining the light sheet covering her in this summer heat. Sitting up, she curiously glanced around her room, and out the bedroom window, one more time before getting up to use the bathroom. Where the hell had that thought come from, she wondered as she sat in the muted shadows of her tiny bathroom. She wasn’t one to be afraid of the dark, sh...

Short Story S:5 P 1 - "Unseen Hands"

You want noise when something happens. A blaring warning sign. A whisper of foreboding. A chill of uncertainty. You want another person nearby. A hand to hold onto. A rush of moving bodies to motivate you to safety. A sense of unity. A pack survival mentality.   You want a tool. A device to give you advantage. Hope for success. A net for security, should you have to risk it all. A life line. What you don’t want. What you fear the most. Is the unpredictability of nothingness. Because that is where real terror begins. Humanity is so certain our greatest enemies will meet us on the battlefields in manners we understand, that we never stop to consider.... That they don’t think the way we do. There will be no siren. No amount of individuals beside you to make a difference. No technology to aid you. All there will be is a moment--a single flickering second of discord--and then.... oblivion. You see, our greatest enemies can perceive our mortal coil....

When A Character Fails, It's in the Writing

     It's been awhile since I've posted my thoughts.      But what I'm seeing as of late on--and hearing outside of--social media, is the downfall of tv shows due to a character/actor/storyline departure.      Which confuses me.      Not because it happens.      It has always happened.      Some of our most beloved characters and shows have had unexpected absences for decades. What confuses me, is why it is such a hot topic.      I suppose then, an examination of the times is in order.      Looking back at some of my beloved shows as a teen (20yrs ago) where a character, or a continuing story line had finally come to an end, I realize the difference is the approach. Whether there was discord on set or not, a family or financial issue--whatever the cause--we were never made privy to the reason something/someone we had enjoyed for so long was now gone.   ...
