Swan Song (Short Story) - 9/11/2024 1:10:42 PM
Now I know why haven't watched RuPaul's Drag Show. But I do recall the New Year's night celebration where my wife wore her mother's black Christian Dior gown that fit her perfectly. She was wearing death, but my ex-wife was very much alive until I couldn't afford her anymore.
Indenting the paragraphs would make it a little easier to read. Otherwise the story was well-written and the surprise ending was a nice twist. But, I've never been attracted to stories like this even though I enjoyed whatever Allan Poe wrote. It's just not my cup of tea. Based on what you wrote I believe you have a large following of people who like this kind of genre.

It seeps through pores, burrows deep within (Poetry) - 10/15/2024 9:51:45 AM
Shades of Halloween!! Your poem certainly makes ones skin crawl. Makes one wonder just exactly what this insidious worm under the skin is. Is it a lie, a yearning, and addiction or something else? Only the poet knows.
It fits the Halloween category very well.
