This Week's Features

The Origins of Every Adventurer by my-story-is

Short, but powerful.

This piece packs a lot into just two short lies.

Howling Train by Emily-Byrd

"Calling on the wind,
Between the flying leaves"

A short poem that captures a sense of nostalgia as it describes a travelling train. The hypnotic rhythm of the poem is reminiscent of the repetitive sound of a train on tracks.

Flip-Top Head by Bark

"The tiny kitchen was crowded with dead wives and relatives, laughing and joking."

A short piece of prose that is strangely haunting and will leave you speculating.
