《Shards of Sugar (2022 - x) - [Poetry By Eclipse 3]》21.) diabetes

It's so sweet,
soaked in honey,
a little deathly.
Soft and creamy.
Cringeworthy.
Such a treat,
no, honestly.
Not being funny.
Its honey's so runny.
Slimy.
Glazed glucose,
poisoning the heart
with a guilty kind of sickness.
Teeth sink into its surface,
while it's smothered by the tongue.
Then mechanical digestion takes place,
and shades of pink flood the face.
That gross creature commits gluttony,
fingertips silky wet with a bear's honey.
They warn the children of nosebleeds that never happen.
And now they're forcing bees into labour for more,
consumerism.
Capitalism.
But they just can't get enough,
so they take whole handfuls to stuff
themselves with so monstrously,
why don't they take their self-worth seriously?
Things I'll never know.
Drowning their souls in artificiality.
Such animality.
Diabetes in a bowl,
needles, leaves and a hole
that expands
to swallow them whole,
takes them to wastelands
where they'll exist,
wasted and repulsive.
Yet they still remain impulsive.
So repulsive.
So impulsive.
Still.
Sickly.
Sticky like a disease.
But they'll never ask for help, so please,
don't bother anymore.
They're lost at their core.

8 261Exuperius [DISCONTINUED]
Terravest. The northernmost continent of the world known by many names of legend, but is most commonly reffered to as Athora, has, for eons, served as the land of exiles. Human criminals, dark elves, grayskinned orcs and dwarves that preffer mining with machinery over the traditional pickaxe alike, have come to call this half-frozen hellhole their home. It is a land of great strife, calamity and crisis, where one legendary tale ends only to begin the next, heroes fall down and villains find themselves thrown into lava. Around seventy years ago, a legendary figure appeared out of seemingly nowhere and conquered three human nations, forming a kingdom worthy enough of being called a small empire. However, at the eve of his heirs ascension, the legend breathed his last, leaving this same bloated, chaotic realm without the pillar that kept it together. Already, the carrion nobility, still spiteful for being denied their "rightful" place below the sun, rise up and gather at the court, each eager to consolidate their own power in these troubled times. Tempers flare, power is exercised without restraint and no one expects the hedonistic prince to succeed at keeping the realm together. Alas, as is often the case with such tales, not everything seems to be as it might at first appear and the vain lords of the realm may yet come to regret their carrion will. --- The Content Warnings are there for a good reason. ---

8 117Life's Exodus
I was a being that transcended even the Gods.I stood at the top, the apex, the pinnacle of power.And yet here I am. Shackled, powerless; a mere husk of my former self.The memento of my loved one binds me to this cursed place.Why, you ask?Why? Because I am. I am the end, the harbinger of demise. It was my quest. To bring end, to be end.The Gods respected that wish and in turn got immortal life. But, oh the irony, the immortal life I gave them made them break their promise.Corrupted by their attachement to their mortal selves they betrayed me.They took her life, one of their own kind and my love, and bound me with her flesh and blood.She, the Goddess of beginning. I would end the cycle and she would repeat it. We were so different and yet we loved each other.My rage burned without stop in sight, however time takes it all. Hate, love, sadness, joy, they are all taken away.But the memory, the memory of hate, to kill the Gods, this stays. Yes, I will end them.They played me a fool and now it will be their time to pay the price. But the price is costly.I can't wait! Their fall is near! My dawn shall be heralded by their deaths. Corpses shall tower to the skies and blood shall form rivers! As I am death incarnate! I am their bane, their RUIN! You fools, you don't play... with DEATH!My new destiny awaits.....
