Echoes of Eternity
At the edge of the cosmos, she found it - a planet pulsating with echoes of a forgotten time. Her ship landed, dust swirling in alien air. A structure, ancient yet advanced, hummed with cryptic energy. She touched the alien monolith; it responded. Suddenly, her mind filled with visions of civilizations rising, flourishing, falling - an eternal cycle. The echoes of eternity whispered, "You are not alone." She left, carrying the weight of cosmic solitude, yet paradoxically, the comfort of universal companionship.

Edible Bodies
I found the rotting body I had buried the week before. It was finally ready for consumption! It all started as a child, my mother taught me the taste of humans was amazing. She’d hire a sitter for me and have me set the traps. I’d catch her and mother would take her to the woods and bury her. We’d dig her up when the rot kicked in and enjoy the meal. Now that I’m a big boy I can do it all on my own. Yummy, yummy salted guts! I also love guts and nuts. Almonds are my favorite!
