Dichotomy Stories

Following in a similar vein to the previous two poems, For Living delves, briefly, into the purpose of life itself, with a markedly hopeful tone

Dichotomy; A dichotomy is a contrast between two things. When there are two ideas, especially two opposed ideas — like war and peace, or love and hate — you have a dichotomy.

Sophie Zurich is dead. The whole of the town Pandora is shaking after learning about the horrendous spurs of the death. Social media is going crazy and everyone has just one word on their lips: "justice" Sophie Zurich is dead. Her mother couldn't but blame herself. Her stepbrother, Samuel, can't go to bed without shrieking out loud claiming that he can hear her. He can see her. Sophie Zurich is dead. The cops have every reason to justify the convicts but what's stopping them? Sophie Zurich is dead. Or is she? [ 12 / O3 / 2O22 ] - [ na ]

Angel Foster's debut poetry collection under her new pen name, she describes a detailed depiction of being love lost and choosing between the good and the light.

March 3 The Horse of a Different Stripe When I arrived at the horse and pony show, I saw all there was to see; there were Morgans, Walkers, and Paints. Yet I couldn’t help, but return to this particular zebra, the spark of my imagination, the inspiration of my dreams. There was no help for me, I want what I want and need what I need. It was all about spirit, all about soul; the fire in its eyes matched the burning of my heart, ignition at the point of recognition. Then I stumble, then I fall, bad behavior and wrong thinking, the selfishness of the self-involved takes hold and runs my mouth, “Nice mount, great steed, But can nothing be done about these stripes?” The flash in those eyes, the knowing knickers, said it all. I was trying to stay in my small place and that would never work with her, if I wanted the Zebra, I had to be willing to go to Africa.

The Terrion invasion had wrecked the kingdom of Ohen. The war ended with a tragic loss to the kingdom. It came as a huge shock. Terrions were from a clan known among the people of Ohen as "The Unfavoured " Unable to conjure flames or show any abilities of the pyros they were thought to be ignored by the gods. They were seen as low born. The sudden invasion had revealed that the powerless 'unfavoured' were indeed far more powerful. They held a parasitic power to drain any magic from their opponent making them powerless. With that they could gain access to any power they desired. Many Ohenians fled their homeland. But the few who could not escape are exploited at the hands of this ruthless leader and his cruel subjects. The unfavored now get everything that they once lacked. Unlimited supply of pyro powers that they forcefully extract from the enslaved pyros to fuel their own malicious power. The native Pyros now live in separate quarters in pathetic conditions. None are allowed to own lavish property or come anywhere near the Terrion blocks. The war ground still stands with the ruins of the Queen's castle and the skeletal remains of the martyred soldiers. Believed to be haunted , none dare to walk on or even come close to it. A perfect place to house a rebellion. "The Dome" is a structure Hidden underneath the 'haunted' war ground housing an army of rebels plotting to reclaim their homeland and save it from the brink of Catastrophe. Human beings have never known the existence of the pyros or any being of magic. However, the town of Shadowden lies a little too close to magic. This town lies at the borders of Ohen the magical land of the pyros and beings only known to the humans in their imaginary tales. Auryn is an orphan growing up in an orphanage in shadowden. How is she linked to Ohen? Well....

Once entranced by Savanna's performance, she robs and deceives these men. This is the life she is used to, one she lives so mercilessly, that is until she finally meets her match.

A short pondering

The dichotomy of rust By james a. galgano A world that begins without promise anyone is able to see. A child clings to parents' fingers searching for love's warm eternal embrace. Flash forward to puberty many times this child is left waiting for anyone to reach for his or her trembling eyes. Often one is left to think these adults or grown children have forgotten the pain of negligence and lies. Life has become an endless dilemma searching for reason and or solution or is portrayed on internet for follower or like Is this what we all have become as we cling to our broken promises or dreams on spirits which capture our dark night. This was never how life was to be lived where everyone is either so hurt or so reluctant to forgive! Sure, this might be overblown but have you read the news if you are still even able to read The world is severely divided by false prophets, billionaire nuts, or the rest of us if have all by them been deceived? Yet, rather than target those who have been responsible for meting out all this sorrow or pain. We turn against each other we who have no blemish or blame but being born a certain color, religion, culture or mindset as if that is even a real reason. Think about it humans have been on this planet close to 6 million years and still we refuse to admit these idiots with all the money are the problem now the rest of us. This is the black and white color we all must see after all this is what these criminals have done to us all since life's first century. What will we all do now get rid of this wealthy rust and move forward to a better place to be? (only time will tell, if it would speak)

In the magic-filled, emotional, and winding first installment, Allen learns what it means to love, and not to believe everything he sees.

This is probably more of a vignette than a short story. I was inspired by a game, where it had this one lonely house that a dark figure sometimes visited in memory of someone who still remained there ... forever. A testament to a lost love lost from one individual's fall from grace.

Difference is what makes a relationship all the better. Jimin x Namjoon
