I'm a recent graduate of Stony Brook University with a degree in Environmental Humanities and Filmmaking. I love writing and storytelling, and I love sharing my work so I can continue to improve my written voice.

Mama Bear
A black shadow with paws lumbers into the backyard. Snout tasting the dampness of spring air, feet muddy from thawing earth.
By Madison Newton8 months ago in Poets
The Car and the Cougar
A snow bank? No, a tan felled branch. No–neither of those. Two bright spheres catch the gleam of my headlights and they follow the spin of the tires like amber saucers.

My Moon
No words can express the overwhelming love it emits when it shines.
By Madison Newton8 months ago in Poets
Two Rare Eagles
A massive bird dove down to the water, wings outstretched, talons taut; he caught the bass in one fell swoop and alighted on a branch, hungry and hot.
By Madison Newton8 months ago in Poets
The Dragon
Fiery breathing, scales like shields, thunderous wings, a dragon guards gold.
By Madison Newton8 months ago in Poets
Toxicity
An icicle heart beats slow, cold—it pays no mind to the scars on mine.
By Madison Newton8 months ago in Poets
Letting Go
Cloud of pale ashes mixes with waters of life. My father is home.
By Madison Newton8 months ago in Poets
Stripes
A grotesque, fat slob. Egotistical, lazy– a decent singer.
By Madison Newton9 months ago in Poets
Dad
Making bubble cheese, drinking Sprite, captaining boats, cap backwards, freedom.
By Madison Newton9 months ago in Poets
The Robot in the Dark
Spotlight eyes, peering around the corner at the top of the stairs– its movements jerky, rigid, on my neck are goosebumps, prickly hairs.
By Madison Newton9 months ago in Poets
Spinning Backhoe
Spinning scorpion, derailed, collosal, unhinged– churning up dust clouds.
By Madison Newton9 months ago in Poets
Threads
Crumbling walls, moisture, gleaming eyes shining through gloom– the spindly legs stand poised, limber, awaiting their prey from below.
