As the dawn begins to show the ants go marching from their home,

They take the same familiar path for routine sake and what they know,

The sun is up and work begins they do their jobs and move along,

Each one careless for the next but working towards the same old song,

At high noon they stop to admire just how for that they have come,

Then its back to work again for fear in that they cou...

A massive storm has put a major dam in a dire position. The protagonist sits in the control room closely monitering the situation when an alarm goes off, indicating that the dam has reached its limits. Now they must decide between opening the flood gates and flooding a nearby town, or taking a chance by leaving them closed and hoping that the dam holds. ...

"Hello everyone and welcome to my show",

Spoke the bearded magician with a little red bow,

"Have you noticed my act has started already?"

He said with a grin while keeping hands steady,

"Id like to begin with an announcement from the staff",

He pointed over to a large box on his left,

"It appears their lost and found is full up,"

"So if you're missing anything like a wallet or cup. . ."

Edward blinked his eyes awake three times. He was mighty sore, confused... laying down on hard stone ground. His mouth was open, and dry. He licked his lips and caughed violently, shooting a pain all over his body. He sat up, rubbing his eyes, looking around in pale blue light.

He could not remember anything...

"Ughhh" Came a voice that Startled Edward. Then he noticed another body on the stone...

I think I saw My shadow running away,

Im not religious but I thought I would pray,

Damned if I went but Damned if I stay,

In the heat of the day,

The sun is blinding and the field's ablaze,

The asphault dances and the salted air plays,

No clouds around not a single stray,

In the heat of the day,

The fire's burning but the skin has turned gray,

No other life around out on display,

Ther...

Darkness... Cold... Wet... Rain... Emptyness... Lonelyness... The Voice of god echoes the warning: "Three Minutes Remaining".

With the flip of a switch, the entire world around Shai had turned to black. Every streetlight, cellphone, vehicle headlight, and building window had instantly shut off. And as Shai froze in her steps and adjusted to the situation, the warning came.

Shai's adrynaline ki...

“Mayday, Mayday! This is Max 5! I repeat, this is Max 5! We are losing altitude! We are going down!” The pilot screamed into a radio as he frantically tried to control the craft.

Everyone held on for dear life.

The crash came on them suddenly, and the aircraft broke up in a fireball as it slammed hard into the sand. Most of the crew were thrown far in the confusion.

Gabriel Shay was the firs...

Marge’s house was a brownish Tan colored single floored abode with a long planked ramp that switched back on itself in order to reach the raised front door. It sat back about an acre in the front yard, with a few small trees placed around the grass. Maybe it was my childhood imagination… but to me, it seemed like every window to the place was tinted black, adding to the haunted atmosphere this pla...

This home is my picture and it’s stained through the glass,

Out in the harbor sits a black ship with no mast,

Here in the tower they come and they go,

Sometimes we run, sometimes it’s slow,

Down past the hills where the dragons still loom,

We send our best knights out there to their doom,

The pits are barbaric below in the dark,

Eyes of the demons placing their mark,

The forest is twist...

Damn that clock it strikes at twelve,

Digging up the past this delve,

Now the clock it strikes at one,

Rest of us are on the run,

Here the clock strikes at two,

Sight unseen, a myth anew,

How the clock strikes at three,

More or less inside of me,

Why the clock strikes at four,

Just another living door,

When the clock strikes at five,

Lest the dead become alive,

What the clock strikes at...
