“Chronicles of the Desert’s Embrace
Amelia's heart pounded as she stood in the midst of the desert, the scorching sun beating down on endless dunes that seemed to stretch into eternity. The once bustling city she called home felt like a distant memory. She glanced around, hoping to catch a glimpse of familiar surroundings, but all she saw were the relentless waves of sand.

The Contents Page. Top Story - November 2023.
Inspired by those who have gone before me (and helped a little, on the technical front!), I have created a contents page for my work on vocal, thus enabling the thousands who flock to my profile daily (or you six or seven, thank you so much for keeping my chin up!) to gain easy access to both the gems and the wormy potatoes. Some of these pieces look like somewhat peculiar choices without the context of the challenge they were written for (why the fuck has a box shown up on the doorstep? What's with the random chapter that goes nowhere? And where do these ideas for Haiku come from?) I have learnt a lesson there and more recently started using subtitles to remind me if I was writing the piece to a particular challenge.

The Greatest Lie in History is Human Rights. Content Warning.
Introduction Human rights, often hailed as the bedrock of modern-day civilization, have long been upheld as a beacon of desire for a truthful and just society. However, below the surface of this noble perfect lies a stark fact: the idea of human rights, as we are aware of it, is flawed and has been manipulated to serve political, monetary, and ideological agendas. This article seeks to shed light at the insidious ways wherein the notion of human rights has been used to conceal systemic inequalities, perpetuate strength imbalances, and keep the popularity quo.

Neologisms: Mirrors of Our Times and Catalysts for Change

Engulfed in the desert's parched silence, I was nothing but another grain of sand in the wind.
Deserts have long captured the imagination of writers, artists, and explorers, beckoning them into a realm of both harshness and breathtaking beauty. The literary and artistic exploration of deserts has been a recurring theme across various genres. The barren, arid landscapes have served as a canvas for authors and artists to paint narratives of resilience, survival, isolation, and transformation. From ancient myths and legends to modern-day science fiction, the allure of desert settings continues to draw storytellers into a world where nature is stripped down to its bare bones.

Whispering Oak Cottage
There once existed a house unlike any other in a small, tranquil community surrounded by verdant trees and undulating hills. Widely, this home was referred to as the "Whispering Oak Cottage." The old oak tree that towered over it gave it its name; its rusty leaves and twisted branches gave the impression that the wind was listening to its secrets.

What Is Senryu?. Top Story - November 2023.
In the spirit of the ‘Snafu Senryu’ challenge, I did a little digging into the art of Japanese poetry to understand a bit of the history of Senryu, in hopes that it would inspire a few gems (spoiler alert—it did!) Senryu is a form of Japanese poetry that shares a common structure with traditional haiku but serves a different purpose. Like haiku, senryu consists of three lines with a syllable pattern of 5-7-5. Unlike haiku, however, the form is more focused on human nature, rather than the natural world. Senryu often delves into the humorous, satirical, or ironic aspects of daily life and the human experience.
