《What If Tomorrow Is Too Late?》Disguised
Advertisement
Open your eyes
it's time
to go down
the rabbit hole
with empty pockets
a broken compass
and a pair
of blank dice
Take the red pill
or the blue pill
It doesn't matter
They're both
placebos
Let that
sink in
as you taste
the bitter venom
they were
gracious enough
to waste
as we eagerly
stirred it in
took a big sip
chased it
with a dumb look
on our face
Uncontrolled emotions
Are now growing
like a volcano
overflowing
The Magma burns
deep into
our fragile skin
as it rages
No key to this cage
we woke up to
and found ourselves
trapped in
The charade
was highly orchestrated
Wake up
They played us
We were too ignorant
to realize
we were blinded
and misguided
All they did
was lie to us
and we let
our emotions
continue
to be the only thing
left inside of
to guide us
And guess what
at the end of the day
it always ends up
the same damn way
Half cocked gun
itchy trigger finger
Sitting there
between
our own two hands
but we're too afraid
to take aim
so we join them all
in their masquerade
It's our own fault
we mistake sarcasm
for kindness
We are subliminally
programmed
to be silenced
frozen in our lifetime
emotionally
denying it
Our minds are
forever stuck
in perpetual motion
While our bodies
are still going
through the motions
They're stoking that fire
and when they
finally hand us
a hose
filled
with a few drops of water
to control it
What do we do
We watch it burn
as it all unfolds
on the six o'clock news
By the time the clock
strikes midnight
we're too tired
to realize
that our whole lives
were wasted
filled with nothing
but bullshit
force fed to us
as we did nothing
but smile
and enjoy
the taste of it

The Stars Have Eyes
The universe was a vast, empty, dark, and uncaring place. Then life happened, and the universe was changed forever. Only a teeny-tiny bit, but definitely different. Then again, the universe changes a teeny-tiny bit every second of every day. For instance, if someone were to get off the couch and randomly drink a glass of milk? Bam! One less glass of milk in the universe. Changed forever. Well, excluding any time-travel shenanigans, but anyone who puts a big old hole in the time-space continuum just to un-drink a glass of milk should really reevaluate their priorities. Unless, of course, they were attempting to prevent some massive catastrophe vis-a-vis said glass of milk. Such a scenario is by no means impossible, as one should never underestimate the importance of calcium. Another important tip for any life forms out there is to keep things in perspective. Some look at the vastness of creation in relation to themselves and go, ‘Man, this sucks!’ These people really need to narrow their focus. Sure, they will never affect anything happening on the other end of the galaxy, but so what? That’s way the heck over there, where it doesn’t matter. Therefore, in order to maintain a healthy mindset, it is important to narrow one’s perspective to the things and people that affect them, and that they can affect in turn. But what happens if one is an unfathomable cosmic being from beyond the veil of reality? What happens when such an existence is capable of influencing entire swathes of the universe just by its presence? A creature such as Magh'rathlak the Observer? That particular entity is only about average as far as reality-warping creatures from the dawn of time go, so its influence over the fabric of reality is rather limited. And it still struggles to keep things in perspective. That, among other things, is why it decided to narrow its worldview a bit by compressing the maddening vastness of its being into a single corporeal form. Magh'rathlak had never tried such a feat, but that wasn't about to stop it. After all, how hard could being human possibly be?

The Necromancer in Magic School
"Magic cannot create life." This is one of the most basic tenets of magic. And yet, when Professor Adelyn Mackenzie investigates rumours of a talented prospective student in a small village in the middle of nowhere, she finds that he has managed to create the world's first living homunculus. "Magic is miracle given form." That is what Cadmus Guiles' sister always said. So, when she died, it was only natural for Cadmus to believe that he could bring her back to life through magic. Now, offered the resources he needs to pursue this path of research, Cadmus gladly accepts to go to the most distinguished school of magic on the continent: The Laurucian Academy of Magic. However, the Academy is a place of intense competition, and only those who rise to the top may recieve the services and resources that the Academy has to offer. Cadmus believes that he can easily defeat his peers due to him already having broken one of magic's most basic tenets, but it's time for him to learn that talent comes in many different forms...
