    After loss tore her world apart, Raine Dyer vanished into the forest living in a forgotten cottage. There, beneath the canopy's twilight glow, she stumbles upon an ancient clay statue hidden among the roots. From that moment on, dreams bleed into reality. Whispers follow her. Shadows shift. And the forest remembers more than it should. A haunting tale of loss, isolation, and the secrets buried beneath moonlit soil.

    Upon an act with life itself as our stage, I challenge you to remember what we are. When the lines of reality and illusion blur... when passion overlaps with desire, it's only fitting that, a human, judge what is truth! The City of Shimérik has long since waited for the curtain to rise once and for all. Rise, rise it shall! On display for all to see-a visceral emotion, it lurks no more...

    Godfrey Illinois. 2 A.M. Alone, walking down a narrow road with mist as his sole companion, a boy finds a book. It sits in the middle of a crossroads, all the street lights about it blinking red. And, despite his lackadaisical nature, he wanders off the sidewalk and picks it up with not an ounce of piety to show for the inauspiciousness of the occasion. A rough leather bound tome with a strange inscription, the boy thinks the book innocuous, a curio. Idiot. With a name like Seven though, perhaps the boy can be forgiven for his misfortune . . . and his missteps. Meh. Either way Seven has no idea he's about to release a trickster god from time immemorial, and with her, mayhem on a level our rational world has never experienced; a procession of the weird. A monster's parade. And so, without further ado, Yokai, the aberrant beings and manifestations of Japan's storied and occultic landscape, are hereby re-invited to party the night, the day, and any other time they wish away! And unfortunately for Seven and his new found partner, they're the ones who'll have to clean up the mess and send these monsters back into the mist and yore of the pages of the past.

    This book is not suitable for audiences with zero percent sense of imagination and a mental age of two and below. I'm not really a great poet, just a guy who knows how to hold the pen and write the twenty six letters of the alphabet. But I like thinking about so many things, like love, robots, emerald onions, heartbreak, nonsensical stories, break-ups, death, and different poetry styles. And maybe you do too, so do give this book a try. :) Having said all that, enjoy. ;) Oh, and thank you @notafairyprincess for the wonderful 10/10 cover!!

    This is the poem 'The Sublime' from a series of poems called 'Poems by accident'. This was written by accident, what this means is that I thought of the concept of sublime and I just wrote down everything that first came to my mind. Some parts may make sense, nonsense, beautiful, ugly, strange etc.
