The Visceral-Complex explores humanity's deep psychological and aesthetic fascination with flesh, organs, and the raw materiality of the body-paired with the profound unease of living inside it. Moving through Renaissance anatomy, Gothic decay, Christian imagery, modern horror, and contemporary art, this work uncovers how attraction and repulsion, desire and dread, pulse together at the core of human experience. Drawing on cultural history, literature, and psychology, it names the paradox we hesitate to confront: we are our bodies, yet we fear them.All Rights Reserved

Every Poem Is Your Fault by ccj011

Every Poem Is Your Fault isn't just a collection, it's my proof. Every page is what you did to me, every line the hurt you left behind. I wrote the things you'll never say out loud, the scars you keep pretending don't exist. You can lie to yourself. You can lie to them. You can even lie to the life you keep running back to. But the truth doesn't change, it's carved into every poem on these pages. This is for anyone who's been broken by someone they trusted and left carrying the silence alone. These pages hold the weight of betrayal, the ache of what was never said, and the strength I clawed back by putting it into words. Every poem is proof of what happened. Every poem is your fault. Disclaimer This book is a work of creative expression. The poems within it are born from lived experiences, emotions, and imagination, but they are not intended as factual accounts of any one person, relationship, or event. Any resemblance to actual people, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

Or will Miles end up throwing away everything he's ever wanted, including his heart? - - - - - - - - - - - - Updates every Tuesday at 9pm EST.

But nothing is as it seems, and the past or monsters have a habit of reappearing when least expected. In those charming woods, where trees guard the secrets and moonlight struggles to break through, the most anticipated mating bond in the community is about to change everything-shuffle the cards. Gideon, the youngest alpha of a fresh wolf pack is drawn to a girl who radiates with light and mystery and this connection puts another level for his challenges. When their worlds collide the ground shake and strange forces rise from the dark caves, testing their braveness. With the danger waiting, Gideon faces a heart-wrenching choice: protect his pack or the girl who absorbed his soul, or risk it all to uncover and fight the truth. ✰✰✰ Charismatic characters Fun Wolves Mystery And the Love ♥ ✰✰✰

The Weight Of My Heart❤️ by LabiNoor_writes

She only meant to help her best friend escape a blind date. He only meant to punish the woman who ruined his family. Neither of them expected love to be the cruelest lie of all. Dr. Mira Das had always been the quiet one - brown-skinned, soft around the edges, a middle-class girl with more kindness than confidence. When she fell for Arav Malhotra, the cold, self-made CEO who saw the world through power and precision, she thought she'd finally been chosen for who she truly was. But love built on secrets never lasts. The night she confessed her feelings - he confessed his revenge. She left him that night with tears in her eyes and a heartbeat growing beneath her own. Four years later, she's no longer the fragile girl he broke - she's a doctor known for her calm, her courage, and her silence. When she's assigned to treat an elderly man in a powerful family's mansion, she accepts - unaware that fate is leading her straight back to the ghost of her past. She doesn't know she's stepped into the home she once dreamed of building with him. And between them stands a truth neither of them is ready to face - a four-year-old boy with Arav's eyes and Mira's heart. "The Weight of My Heart" is a story of love born from lies, hearts stitched together by time, and the kind of forgiveness that hurts more than hate ever could. Because sometimes, the person who broke you is the only one who can put you back together - if fate gives them a second chance. GUYS PLEASE CHECK IT OUT!!!!

For Her Honour by xMishx

Welcome to my adventure into writing a short story for the Dragon Princess theme set by @_Once_Upon. If you find the idea of writing to a subject for a competition, make sure you check out Ever After Contests. This is a short story about a fiery princess who vows revenge on her would-be hero. The word count was a maximum of ten thousand words which wasn't easy to stay under; I wanted to keep going! I hope that you enjoy this tale, I certainly had fun writing it. For Her Honour is a tale that is sometimes sad, sometimes funny and the end is rather steamy ;) Don't forget to show your love with those pretty stars and let me know what you think; I'd love to hear from you! © These stories and works are copyrighted.
