A Black Cat Moment

I’m a woman with the head of Adam. You are a man with the body of Eve. Conjoined and bound, like two air-tied towers, we sting each other during the dark hours. Our prophecy burns as one with the flame. Equally shifting, our hearts are the blame. Eternally falling, disgraced dirt-mesh, systemed twins–I with breathContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment”

A Black Cat Moment

You see, I have one more bullet left. It just sits waiting alone in its last chamber. It has a name; it’s called Rejection. You died once; I killed you.

A Black Cat Moment, The Missing Titan Part 1

Dear Missing Titan, How misled you were. You attempted to compete with me. You did not know my dark depths. You wanted to know, so you chose to trespass. Breathless, you were left. That should now teach others to never build a vessel to control the pitch-black sea. There are no miracles here. I governContinue reading “A Black Cat Moment, The Missing Titan Part 1”
