《MUSINGS.. A collection of poetry》Seven years of confinement
Advertisement
A happy-go-lucky guy one day
And accused as criminal, the next;
His naive mind couldn't fathom
Why he breathed four seasons in the dirty cell.
From confusion to frustration,
His eyes slowly lost its glint of hope,
Another year in the unkempt prison,
Will justice be served? Will he be back home?
Melancholic clouds loomed over his head,
He spiralled down, deep in depression;
As he stayed woke, over three sixty nights
With a shattered, aching and hopeless heart.
A bellowing rage erupted within,
Filled him inside and engulfed him in;
Drove him to edge, questioned his sanity,
For the whole twelve months, swallowed his being..
His burnt core, laid as pallid ashes,
The rage gave way to wounds and gashes;
Another January, another December..
But justice was far, maybe blind and lost.
Beautiful face, was so long gone
There rather was, a ghastly skull, skin and bones;
The hope was dead, as was justice,
As the withering soul, survived a new year.
When freedom approached the stinky cell one day,
After seven, long years, finally calling him innocent,
The once happy, young man was now lost in grievance,
Far from carefree, far from innocent.

Hey, what would you do after you got isekai-ed? Me? Look! A cockroach villain has appeared. Let's kill him before he messes things up. Too cruel? That kind of character is always introduced to be killed by the protagonist anyway so I'm doing the world a favor here. Less CO2 emission. It's time to "Go Green" guys, even in another world. See over there, that's a trash young master type right there. What do I do? Endure the initial insults and provocation then dispose of him when no one sees of course. Why make things difficult? Hmm, a pretty girl in peril. Potential love interest there… but no, I have enough problems as it is. At the very least, I won't help her just 'cause she's a female. Same goes for males. What? I support gender equality. Hey, I know the clichés, what did you think I was going to do? Simply let it run its course? Well duh, I'll twist it to my benefit. ************************************************ -This is a power fantasy story.

8 565The False Summoned
The Summoned were called from another world to save them all. Wielding significant power because of their access to 'The Interface', they acted as beacons of hope for humanity. Or that's how it was supposed to be. But not everyone thinks they're doing a good job. Lane had a dream since he was young—to stand on the same level as the Summoned—and he finally found a chance to seize it. But things didn't go exactly as planned.

8 125Dudley's good???
People are flawed creatures and they do things, good and bad. No one grows up doing only good things. Most people eventually get around to live a normal life, a mixture of good and bad decisions. But some are raised as hellspawn. They fail to see what wrong they have done. Oftentimes, they need a push from an external force to steer them in the right direction. Some remain a hellspawn. So, what will happen when Dudley gains a new set of memories and finds himself questioning his life??? Read to find out more.
8 187Why The Hell Not
Sweat started to form all around my body as the pain consumed me. It was 9pm and this had to be the worst wave of heat I've ever experienced! My body ached as the flames traveled from my core, spreading to the rest of my body. I hate heat, every type of heat, but mainly this one. Heat, in my pack, is a bitch! The second you turn 16 your heat starts. Then for the rest of your life you get a heat cycle once a month, as if having a period isn't bad enough. The heat happens right after your period, leaving you 2 weeks of peace as a woman if you find your mate your 16 years of life! If you did not find your mate at 16, when you turn 17 it will be every 2 weeks! Your period is still once a month, thankfully, but the heat cycle directly after your period is the strongest! Leaving you ONE week of peace...unless of course you don't find your mate by the time you turn 17. If you are unlucky enough to not have found your mate by the time you are 18, then yes it will be EVERY week! Leaving you NO peace!!Basically the longer you go without finding your mate, the more heat you will go through. If you're 20+ then it could be EVERY hour! Once you find your mate it goes back down to once a month, thankfully. Lucky, or lucky for me, I'm 17...meaning I've gotta deal with this every 2 weeks. This one in particular is the worst one yet! I grabbed the water on the side of my bed and tried to fix my dry throat.......
