Dark Reflections
And grim rejection
Darkness is under your bed at night
Darkness consumes you when no one is in sight
Darkness breathes down your spine
Waiting for you to lose every piece of your mind
Do you feel it yet?
Itโs a game of Russian roulette
Dangerous, unpredictable, and fearful
Do you get it yet?
Darkness is skillful
It plots and schemes against you when youโre low
All the way until youโre crippled, stiff, and unable to move
Itโs a wreaking, screaming, nightmare
Something not quite fair
But awfully crude
Do you finally get it yet?
The darkness is you
But you still donโt have a clue

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge โ well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heleddโs dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morganโs writing is atmospheric and exciting.
