Stories

A second book of poetry, posted in no particular order or schedule. Maybe it's better than the first. Or not.

Friggy and Jewl were street kids in a world that had been changed by momentous events. They survived by simply taking what they could get, working if work presented itself, and choosing other means if needed. If that sometimes meant a little basic thievery, well, that was a part of the world they lived in. It was a big city, and small crimes were tough to solve.

Until one day when they picked up something unexpected, something unique. And in so doing, set off a pursuit that would ultimately redefine their very existence.

Prompt #9 - Creative scene by @wildone

You run into school knowing you are late, again. You quickly stop at your locker and ditch your jacket and grab some books. As usual the halls are quiet during classes. You dash to your classroom, open the door and start on your explanation and stop. No one is there. No teacher, no other students. You leave and look at other classrooms, all empty. You check your phone and it is actually a school day and not a holiday or anything else. What's happening?

A surprise visitor drops in unannounced and Ruben realizes he’s not alone. None of us are. The discovery shakes him to his core. When others want to make sure the secret remains a secret, what will he do? Turn his back and pretend nothing has happened? Or take a chance?

This is the story of our people from the time of The First Lord's awakening until recent days, I may be asked to add more as time passes.

This has been a time of change for our people, one where we have learned to look at our past and our future, and embrace them and the changes as we accept others and their technology into our lives.

If you want to know more you must first read the story of my First Lord and our people.
