This poem is in response to the poem, "To His Coy Mistress" by Andrew Marvell. For those of you who do not know, this poem is written with the mindset of a man who is trying to convince a woman to go to bed with him, to "seize the day". My poem is what I believe her response might have been, at least what I myself would have said if I was in her shoes.

5 Vile & Ignoble Tales
This is a collection of five miscreant tales: "The Grotesque There Is", "A Mere Clock", "Mayara", "The Lethargy" and "Animalia". Here are the synopses of each story in this book: "The Grotesque There Is" is actually a performance of two short stories. The first (initially called "Equine Hiring") is a mostly dialogue story about a horse in a job interview. The second tells the chronicle of the two men who stood in the rain. "A Mere Clock" is a narrative in the 1st person that tells the adventures of a mere wristwatch. At the first impact, the characters seem far from the reader, but the last paragraph ends up in a contemporary narration. "Mayara" tells the story of an egoistic girl that falls in love with a young man. Later, this man doesn't satisfy himself with her selfishness and ends up infuriating the girl, which leads to a series of tragedies and anguish, all due to the destructible retaliation. "The Lethargy" is an imaginary, almost parabolic narrative where the protagonist is a sleepy student disappointed in himself. "Animalia" is a first-person novelette of a teenage love affair between a bass player and a pretty who turns out to be a beast, making the story a real wild and raw mess. PS.: Some of these stories may present sensitive content and metaphorical representation of violence, although I do not consider any of these occurrences really timely characterised as 'mature content' since such matters are dealt with discreetly and with no compromise. Anyway, if you are uncomfortable with any approach to mature content, I suggest not reading "The Lethargy" & "Animalia". 🧡 #theseasonalcontests Book cover art: "Sogno Del Demiurgo" by Alessandro Sicioldr.Complete

Retribution
Sequel to Vengeance <<>> "Miss Rosier!" Professor Lupin had called after me but I walked out. It was the end of the day and I needed to do something. Or someone. I went to the previously visited location at the time that has been previously mentioned and my activity had walked in after me. "Ah, the apple of my eye," I joked and he laughed. "It's stuff like that that makes me question my reason of why I decided to do this no strings situation with you." "Yes but then your mind is crystal clear afterwards. So let's get into it. Mr Berkshire," I teased.Complete

Just some poems I wrote. Have a great day, rest of your week, and life!
The Driver.
"Sir. I've done my job. Is there anything else?" I smiled cockily. "I specifically asked for a male driver, you're obviously a woman. I should get a refund for the amount I've paid for this. I'm tired of women trying to do me or manipulate me instead of just doing their jobs." Was he insane? I just had to spell it out for this dumb ass. "Well sir, I have no intention of doing you, manipulating you, much less continuing this conversation with you, I did my job. I assure you I am not interested... Renee's a laid back type a girl and she hates billionaires. Lamar's too arrogant for his own good. Never would he think he would find a black woman who intrigued him like Renee. He realizes she's different from all women period and he wanted her in his life despite all obstacles. But a bad beginning has Renee stubborn to so much as imagine life with a white man. #Interracial love story. Please don't take offense to anything in this book. As long as you are voting, I'm updating.Complete

The unreachable mountain
"You're unbearable!" He kicks her with utter contempt. "Please tell me where I'm wrong, causing you discomfort was not my intention," she said crying, causing him to hit her against the ground again. "Do you think you can live with good intentions? Didn't you have all the time you wanted to change and learn? You still dare to ask for more!" He yells at her with hatred, he blamed her for being the one will cause a woman to be beaten; He didn't want to be that kind of man. However, what he lived with her caused him to bring out what he hated the most about himself from within. -Forget it love- said a woman who was next to her- it's not worth it- this dog was supposed to be her friend, she was supposed to support her just like she did; however he managed so that he and she hated each other and thus be able to steal it. The woman on the floor does not know how much she was framed and harmed by her naivety, nor did she know that this was the beginning of her misfortunes. Because of that woman she did not stop suffering, wherever she went she suffered verbal or physical abuse and everything was orchestrated by this woman; she didn't know until she was about to faint. "Why?" She asked this unarmed woman without knowing why she hated him so much. She never did anything to hurt him. She just laughed viciously without answering him, she didn't have to waste her time with an insect; leaving La to die imprisoned in the house where she was kidnapped. "Answer me!" She got up from her bed screaming "Eh? This looks like my room; Did I reincarnate myself in the past?" She ran to the bathroom just to see that her assumption was correct. She thanked the heavens for this second chance by promising that she wouldn't be fooled a second time.Complete
The Wind
A collection of poems, short stories and writings. Well, essentially just poems at the moment. Variety of influences I will always be willing to disclose for specific poems. Some are darker than others (see tags for possible triggers). Please comment any thoughts. Well it seems I have poured more of myself into this book of poems than I've really expressed to any one person irl. But the masochist inside me really wants you all to read it because why not share my head with strangers? But maybe this matters. Maybe this shows something- some progression becuase some of the earliest poems are are about, or reference, self harm and I'm glad to say that's behind me. I can follow a lot of my relationship with existentialism throughout it, as well as simply my attitude towards poetry (quatrains of iambic tetrameter with abab rhyme schemes are still cool but they aren't my go-to.) So yeah, maybe writing poetry in a toilet when I'm trying to calm down from a panic attack, or better yet in the midst of having one, and putting it up on some anonymous platform means something. Because I'm still not what else does.Complete
