Outside the convento of Tiano, Basilio tells a young boy stories of ghosts that haunt their town; ghosts seeking solace, as well as redemption and revenge. He also speaks of his longing to see these ghosts, to find the answers to his own questions. But maybe the ghost he is looking for is closer than he thinks. This is set after the events of El Filibusterismo, the novel by Jose Rizal, and also mentions some characters from Noli me Tangere. Content warning: descriptions of gore and violence

I tend to think out loud but the thoughts that were said out loud tend to not be encrypted, thus making it easier to be forgotten. Yes, this is a collection, a pastiche, or anything you may name it, of poetry and prose; and perhaps some short stories but that is something that I should think of later. Served with random pictures from random places of the internet (might be relevant, might not be). Most of their sources will be at the bottom of the page, so chill yo. If you happen to see a picture/art you made and want it to be taken down, please let me know and thanks! Cover image by metanntut.

I am Carmen. Have you heard of me? I guess not. Aren't you one of those kids who sang the chant "Pen Pen de Sarapen" with smiles painted on their faces on the streets where I used to collapse on, battered and bruised? Hear me out, please. I am Carmen, a maiden of misfortune on the hands of the men who treated me like a toy.

Five years ago, the whole country knew Howl as the face of a national public safety initiative that encouraged kids to say no to drugs, keep away from firearms, and not talk to strangers. He had just made a dramatic exit from the corrupt pit of the Hot Type City Police Department and kicked off his own private investigative agency. He was geared up to start helping people for real. Then some punk put Howl's nephew in the dirt, and everything came to a screeching halt. Now, after a long downward spiral, Howl is one half-empty bottle of scotch away from complete destitution. His shot at redemption comes just in time when a former model struts off the page of a golden-age girlie mag and into his office. Her missing son's disappearance knocks Howl back into a world full of the drugs, guns, and predators he wasted his youth fighting. This time it will be different. He's got nothing to lose but something to prove. This time, he will win.

Poems like these usually aren't shared because people prefer to keep their emotions hidden and out of sight for whatever reason. I simply don't believe in that though. That's why I decided to share these personal poems that express how I felt in each of my past relationships. Some were great, some made me want to rip my heart bleeding from my own body, but no one ever said that life would be easy. I hope you'll enjoy/be inspired?

This is a pastiche of Jabberwocky by Lewis Carol. This pastiche consists of 7 stanzas, a general ABAB rhyming pattern, a chiastic pattern, and made up words. Can you find all of these things?

A pastiche of Mitch Albom's "The Five People You Meet in Heaven" done for a class assignment. Styled similar to the book, and potentially contains major errors. This version is slightly more refined than the first draft, but not by much. This is not based on any actual events - purely a work of fiction. Eve turns nine, and her friends are waiting. They miss her, and she misses them... but nobody anticipated the gift she wound up getting.
