Stairs
Yesterday, upon the stair, I met a man who wasn't there! He wasn't there again today, Oh how I wish he'd go away! The evening did not end well. We didn't fight but I was not sure when we would see each other again. These things do happen. It was late and I had to be going otherwise I would miss my last bus and I needed to be up early tomorrow for work.
Mike Singleton - MikeydredPublished 9 months ago in FictionThe Celestial War
In the distant realms of the cosmos, an ancient rivalry simmered between the Sun and the Moon. The Sun, a powerful deity of fiery brilliance, ruled the day with its radiant light, basking the planets in warmth and life. The Moon, on the other hand, was an enigmatic goddess of lunar splendor, gracing the night skies with her ethereal glow. But jealousy and pride brewed in the hearts of these celestial beings, as each coveted the other's domain.
Rev. Alexander Fenning-SenchereyPublished 9 months ago in FictionWhat If Jupiter Had Mountains?
Over 300 times as massive, a million times greater scary, and eleven times broader than Earth. What if Jupiter wasn't a gas giant at all? What if it were a rock giant instead? What would its surface look like? What could make this World habitable? What if you tried to walk on it? This might occur, and here's what would happen if Jupiter was a rocky planet. Jupiter appears to be a beautiful ball of swirling clouds, but it's a gaseous hell on its interior. What if things took another path for the king of Jupiter is approximately four and a half billion years old? It began as a whirling disc of gas and dust that eventually developed into a fairly large planetary core. Over time, Jupiter's core grew, drawing in more and more rock, ice, and metal, but Jupiter wasn't going to evolve into a rocky planet because of its enormous appetite for gas. Instead, Jupiter's gravitational solid pull drew in massive quantities of hydrogen and helium, shaping it into the majestic gas giant.

Mary Jean M. RamosPublished 9 months ago in PoetsWhat Would Happen If You Were the Last Person on Earth?
Picture a calm Sunday morning. You leave bed, flex your muscles, and open the window to see a stunning sunny day. But wait, a popular street usually crowded with people is empty. Where are they all? What would you do since you appear to be the only human being remaining on the planet? The answer could be anything, I suppose! If the entire globe is your oyster, you have it all to yourself! Every odd notion, bizarre dream, and anything else you can think of! Get aboard the quickest sports car and go along the motorway. Certainly no traffic! Play golf while perched on a skyscraper's roof! Exactly why not? Who's going talk about you using your golf ball to smash some windows? Have you always desired a palace as your home? You can now, though! There is absolutely nothing stopping you from taking advantage of all the options you have! When you've had your fill of excitement and fun, you start to wonder, "What's next?" Maybe it's time to investigate what happened and the reason everyone suddenly vanished. You can look for another person. What happens if you're not alone? While you might go throughout the town looking for others, in this case, you could look everywhere and not come across a single person. Yes, I realise that sounds a little alarming. It's time to move on to more important concerns, like how you will survive in this barren kingdom of yours. You must first consider how you will get food and water. You'll have enough for a while, but some things, like fruits and vegetables, will spoil rapidly, so eat those first! Since nobody controls the power plants that maintain the refrigerators in grocery shops operating, they will eventually shut off. What about water, then? Try to locate every bottle first in all the surrounding shops, then bring them home. Unfortunately, all of this fresh bottled water will eventually run out, so you'll need to learn how to purify water on your own. It's time to consider your long-term supplies after you've enjoyed all these perishable meals for a few days, weeks, or even months. You'll be best friends with rice, beans, and canned goods if there isn't any electricity to power the fridges and freezers. Don't wait until you run out of supplies before you start honing your farming skills—at some point, you'll probably have to learn how to raise your food. Additionally, medical supplies are vital. It would be best if you visited as many pharmacies as possible in an emergency to stock up on supplies. Additionally, since there won't be any doctors available for significant accidents, you might want to exercise additional caution. Therefore, perhaps avoid parkour in this world of yours. The only skills you must learn are farming and do-it-yourself water filtration. You see, without even realising it, you currently depend on a LOT of people. However, you'll need to master essential survival skills like hunting, first aid, cooking, and other things if you're the last person on Earth. So many things would need to be taught to you by yourself. Do you ever feel you don't have enough time to read and educate yourself? Now that you have a tonne of it, libraries and bookstores are filled with information! There won't be any Internet on this planet, so you'll have to do things the way your grandpappy did them. You'll find it quite challenging initially, but soon you'll master survival! It would help if you also emphasised communication. Even though you may currently think of yourself as an introvert, people are inherently social beings. But what can you do if nobody is nearby with whom to speak? Perhaps it's time to buy a dog for yourself. or multiple? Hey, why not start your private zoo? Remember that you are in charge today since you are the planet's ruler. Just remember that these wild animals can view you as a long-awaited meal rather than a conversation partner before you dash to the zoo as well as open up all the cages! You might want to just stick with a dog or cat to combat the loneliness. Or a parrot—at least it would respond to you! Your future shelter will be the next step. Don't get me wrong—hanging out in a fancy mansion or palace is wonderful. If you desire, you can continue doing it forever! Alternatively, you might stay in various five-star hotels and live like royalty. You might even move into a new house every day! But eventually, the whole "living your luxury fantasy" thing will grow stale. Additionally, without regular upkeep to keep them up, all of these structures will become highly unsafe in around ten years. Maybe you'll leave the city behind? You can travel wherever you like, which is fantastic news. Nothing can stop you except borders, immigration regulations, or passports! Oh, but remember that you need to locate fuel sources to travel. In a few years, the fuel in these abandoned automobiles will be stale and useless. As a result, you'll probably need to decide where you want to live permanently. Like you, I would choose a location with a temperate climate. When I'm trying to survive alone, the last thing I want to worry about is tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes, and blizzards! Speaking of the weather, you should consider and prepare for clothing. Of course, initially, you can visit all the shops and try on wacky, odd, or costly clothing! But after a while, you might want to concentrate on reality. Ensure you have clothing for each season and an abundance of warm clothing and blankets. You are never sure when it might get chilly, even if you choose to settle down in an always-warm area! All this talk about surviving as the last remaining human on Earth might be quite discouraging. But let's focus on the positive! Consider all the ways you may amuse yourself! Learning and developing abilities need not only to be about surviving. You can take classes to learn how to draw, paint, create pottery, produce sculptures, or even compose your own stories! What do you think of it? the movie "The Last Human on Earth" What is "In a World of My Own"? That seems nice, no? Additionally, you might need to work on your language skills if the only person you can speak to is a parrot that constantly requests crackers and repeats everything you say. What might you do if you were the only human left?
Ian SankanPublished 9 months ago in FictionThe Origin of Music
In the primordial times, before civilization dawned, Earth was a silent realm. There were no songs of birds, no whispers of the wind, no rustling of leaves, nor the sound of water rushing in rivers. The world was rich in colors and scents, but it lacked the symphony of sounds. All creatures lived in quietude, their existence limited to mere visuals and tactile senses.
