A short monologue from the perspective of a gun strongly against violence

A short story blending fiction and poetry - a haunting tale of war, loss, and the unexpected power of a child's voice. When hatred fuels destruction, sometimes it's not a weapon, but a poem, that changes everything.

A poem based on Pablo Picasso's painting 'Guernica' that was written as part of a university assessment.

This story is no fantasy, its reality. The Nightmare Dimension is about a girl in the middle of a war and suffers from multiple mental issues. This story is about how war affects people.

This isn't just a poem - it's what I feel when people glorify war like it's noble. I'm not here to romanticize soldiers or missiles. I'm questioning all of it - the applause when bombs drop, the lies they feed us, the people who suffer while others profit. It's raw, it's honest, and maybe uncomfortable - but it's real. I wrote this because someone needs to say it.

A bunch of fictional stories based on true life events. A warning before you continue and start reading. This book is more towards the darker sides and not all of the stories have a happy ending so before you proceed, you have been warned

A (relatively timeless) political commentary via metaphor

I'm horrible at writing so please give tips NOTE: this is not trying to glorify war at all. its meant to bring to light how horrible it is.

Iron Coffin is a grim, two-chapter short story set on the Eastern Front during World War II. Following the crew of a German Panther tank during the Battle of Kursk, the narrative plunges readers into the suffocating reality of life inside an armored behemoth-an "iron coffin" that promises not glory, but an early grave. Through the eyes of Hans, the commander, and his weary crew-Otto, Paul, Ernst, and Karl-we see the slow erosion of hope as they push into a furnace of fire, smoke, and steel. The story refuses to glorify battle, instead laying bare the claustrophobia, fear, and futility that defined the Eastern Front. When the Panther is crippled and consumed by flames, the promise of invincibility shatters, leaving only loss, trauma, and silence in its wake. Iron Coffin is not a tale of victory or heroism, but of inevitability-an anti-war meditation on the human cost hidden inside machines of war.

A poem type thing about my thoughts on war...

This book is where all poetry begins And pictures that have a thousand words will never end

The disease was not bad at first, until the government panicked and created a group of people called the raiders. Raiders threatened, and killed people with the disease. Sadly this is what triggered the most dangerous symptom I the disease. Once the person with the disease is threatened they go hostile and they're physical abilities are enhanced. Raiders never stopped the threat they just made they disease grow. But there is something else going on.... Lately everyone has been see things in a recent thunderstorm. One man said his friends was struck by lightning and he started to act differently. So you see there is something in the sky, that can enhance a persons abilities but at the same time make you a monster. I'm a 14 anti-raider and we must stop the threat, and hopefully nothing goes wrong........ But nothing always goes as planed! I'm Richard Cluster and this is my journey

This poem is a day late but my schedule full yesterday, ergo I was unable to upload it. This poem was written to celebrate World Peace Day but it drifted more towards targeting war and those orchestrate it as villainous. It still goes along the general idea of world peace though, so I guess it works.

L Company, famous for developing Bully Game-a morality game designed to teach players about the violence of bullying-released a full-scale war game titled InBel. In J Country, which had continued its military invasion of P Country under the banner of reclaiming a sacred land, InBel was adopted into military training programs to improve soldiers' battlefield judgment. But then frontline soldiers who had played the game began committing suicide one after another, and the fifty-year invasion of P Country started showing signs of collapse.
