Death

Death, unveil yourself don’t hide behind  A need to scare living lights out of weak minds…. Death, reveal yourself in the glory of renewal as the opportunity one always wished for but never had… Death, heal yourself You are painted black only by those  who refuse to see beyond Death, peel yourself to display layers … Continue reading Death

Irony

I remember being first to question the logic of ‘laid down’ rules and structures, right since childhood. The foundation of a rebellious life was being laid, and it created discomfort all around, especially with family elders, and bosses in the later part of life. It has not worked well for me, as I see ‘obedient’ … Continue reading Irony

Naked Vampires Looking into Mirrors

Vampires looking into Mirrors …… by Jim Adams

newepicauthor's avatarA Unique Title For Me

Mirrors reflect the soul and because vampires are the undead, they have no souls as their soul has passed on to the next world.  For this reason, vampires have trouble shaving. 

In the Cream song ‘Swlabr’ aka She Was Like A Bearded Rainbow, the picture has a mustache and you’ve got that rainbow feel, but the rainbow has a beard.

Phases

Phases ….. by Susi Bocks

Susi Bocks's avatarI Write Her

there’s nothing special
in my uniqueness
just a human doing life
born, living, crashing, burning
resurrecting when it’s been enough

i want to love continuously
while needing to be loved
when the harshness needs eased
the years a cycle of up and down
hopefully with you by my side

in the frame you picture me
i’m not notable
not a hero or filled with wisdom
just owning enough guts for the years
lived by me

Over the Top

The prompt reminds me of a female client in the bank where I worked. She was related to a big industrialist family. They prospered with support from the uncles by way of lucrative employment, business opportunities and generous monthly allowances. She would walk in pompously, and plonk her designer handbag on the table. Her ample … Continue reading Over the Top

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #159

Welcome back! I had an uneasy dream yesterday.  I saw myself framed on the wall by a stranger. It was not how I would like myself or my life to be framed or remembered. I was encapsulated, but not in the right manner. It is not about the right epitaph. It is about the different … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge #159

The rise of machines

The Rise of Machines ….. by Punam

paeansunplugged's avatarpaeansunpluggedblog

As I delve deep

I go goggle eyed as I google

I am sucked into a black hole of information

where celestial bodies’ gravitational force becomes infinite

technological event horizon seems nearer

because of the accelerating progress of technology

and its exponential growth

I stare stupefied at the blinking computer screen

trying to wrap my head around the scientific mumbo-jumbo

pausing for the scientific terms to permeate my unscientific brain

when suddenly it goes blank automatically

to turn on to show a funeral in progress

I furiously reprimand self for imagining things

and get up for a cup of espresso to clear my fogged mind

when the espresso machine spews scalding liquid on my hand

I know it is too much of a coincidence!

when I hear a rumble,

with an uncanny prescience I know the washing machine has turned rogue

and it is certainly not my febrile fertile imagination

PROMPT #158- Singularity

Super human intelligence is here

you will be outdated

they try to scare me

I am already scared

I rely too much on

my smartphone for information

than my own brain

which has punished me

by refusing to keep memories as before

But

what really concerns meis

will my equation with my loved ones will change

will my mind stop reading what they want to convey

Will I run for my phone to

read what their every gesture means

isn’t that the height of

horrible singularity
