Devil’s Grimace

Obnoxiousness occupies the highest presidential suite in the world. A woman’s honor is attacked within close family circles. Users become prime products on the web. The Devil grimaced. He is fast losing supremacy. https://sammiscribbles.wordpress.com/2019/07/12/weekend-writing-prompt-114-grimace/

Pessimism

it happened now what should have happened ages ago – the impact was equally devastating – time does not weaken the will to lose   https://mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/2019/07/13/saturday-mix-lucky-dip-15-june-2019-2/

I don’t love you anymore

how can I comprehend
why I am all alone
it’s my fault, I can pretend
how can I comprehend
if I was one to offend
I am ready to atone
how can I comprehend
why I am all alone

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #95- Oh, to be free!

Oh, to be free …… by Sadje

Sadje's avatarKeep it alive

1. Acatalepsy (the idea that it is impossible to truly comprehend anything)

Source: https://www.adventureinyou.com/

2. Eleutheromania (intense desire for freedom)

Eleutheromania is eating up inside her

This golden cage is beautiful but it still

Holds her in, captive and imprisoned

The soul needs to be free, to float in

The wide open spaces and to enjoy

The thing that they call liberty or freedom

She would gladly give her life in exchange

For the chance to be free from this cage

But it’s like Acatalepsy to those who never

Have been free, have always been slaves

Because the blind cannot comprehend light

And the deaf cannot understand the melodies

FOR THE NEW ENTRANTS

As usual, there is no restriction on the format or length ofthe piece. You can get as creative and innovative as you want.

Mental Care Institution

Yes, you want to hurt me

I often wonder if the invisibility of mind and soul is responsible for so much of hatred in the world. How and when did our existence get defined by concrete physical boundaries and characteristics? What we do is undoubtedly ruled by the mind, but there is a difference between the acts carried out for day-to-day … Continue reading Yes, you want to hurt me

Survival

The survivors of the ship that sank in the Atlantic couldn’t believe their luck. They were seeing land after sailing on a lifeboat for five days, and there was a castle on top of it – like a cherry on the cake. As they drew closer with a lot of hope, and dreams of a … Continue reading Survival
