composed of body parts
stolen in a rampage
about
the
planet.
This Frankensteinian
pastiche
stole poetry
from
poets.
Lean
lines’
layers
lost
in
genocidal
sludge.
What does death #propagate?
Cacophony.

The #last she remembered, she had a #number of tools and a digging stick, all of which must have tumbled away when she fell. The Martian was still talking loudly in that annoying, entitled tone of his. She guessed he was male, though it was hard to tell, even if unclothed.

Not willing to #dedicate herself to escape as a sole course of action, Meona’hane’e decided to take #matters in hand & began to look for a large stick for a weapon. Strange. This forest had no deadwood, no timber or even twigs lying about. Well, this was a tad inconvenient.

I made the #decision
Long ago
To never marry
To #travel
To see the world
The car bombing
Changed everything
I lost myself
As easily
As i lost my hearing
I needed stability
I craved predictable
Like some people
Crave chocolate
But 30 years on
I crave myself
Even more

I lean into the #learning curve
& take it a little too fast
my mind is shot, like my nerves
caught up in the past

Meona’hane’e stared briefly at her reflection, then Marvin, then bolted suddenly, running #zigzag to avoid imagined laser beams toward the tree line.
“That kind of silliness is unnecessary for protecting your #health. Literally, I came in peace, & that’s why I’m stuck here.”

I should really stop singing the blues
And bemoaning the terrible #news
And, instead, send this greeting:
At least we are eating;
Many people lack roof, food, and shoes.

“Vain? You just tried to #disorganize my whole existence for your UFO experiments? It’s a bit much!”Meona’hane’e yelled at the gray man.
“I don’t even have a ship,” Marvin retorted. “Can you hear? Are you capable of #learning? I didn’t DO anything. YOU fell through our sky!”

but not allowed resentment,
am I?
That would make me wrong,
to look for something,
Thought deserved,
But little more than courtesy.
The worlds in the mirror,
Think only of the images they make,
Caring little about this one.
And why should they?

Poptarticus ran a tight breakfast crew
Gravy's humor was thin
Jelly'd jiggle for you
like angels on the head of a pin
Biscuit sopped & toiled
hashtag Hash Brown covered smothered & scattered
Eggs never let up, they was #hard boiled
Coffee's what really mattered

Meona’hane’e was conflictingly obsessed with both her #reflection & the alien.
“Greetings, Tsistsistashe. My name, since you haven’t asked, all rude, is Marvin. But please, don’t let my desire for basic civility #impede your ability to admire yourself. Vain much?”

“For you to succeed, everything must work as a #system, be perfectly #timed,” Wanda said, turning the crystal slowly in her hand, “you don’t need any surprises. So that’s what I am looking for in here. Suprises.” Wanda stopped suddenly. “Wait. Who is THIS?” she queried Ang.

The illusion of choice
This, that, the other
A thousand possibilities
Settling on none
Hours of perusal
Time wasted in choice
Perhaps this
Or maybe that
Or another
Where to begin
Where to go
What to do
More and more
Convenience inconveniencing
Until
Inevitably
You choose
Nothing.

They needed a release and rest and, while The Enemy didn’t, these people were only human. They needed more.

Wanda kept a supply of Kevlar gear for Bozos workers for whom highway robbers occasionally set traps. Ang was outfitted with a vest & leggings. As his safety was #relevant to her own, she’d sewn a stack together for Darley’s #debut as a freedom fighter. She loved her horse.
#vss365 #WIPSnips
The monster Ang was fighting was #global, not local, but conquering it was #achieveable for her according to the cards. Wanda poured water from a plastic bottle into a glass & sat it on the table. Using a lighter, she lit a small candle & took out the crystal. She gazed deep.

By the midafternoon, they had finished the cards. After making them a couple of cups of coffee, Wanda gave a measurable sigh & took out a black velvet bag containing a #crystal. “I’m going to miss you when you go. It’s been nice having someone else around this lonely place.”

Under Wanda’s #direction, Ang learned to use a lighter & spray deodorant as a quick flamethrower & a #special self-defense move against biological males that involved her knee—never her foot—the hair on her attacker’s head, their forehead, & her knee again. Darley got armor.
