Imagine them here now
In your shoes
Facing your problems
Skin prickling
As they feel your fears
Would they stand strong
As they do
Against evil time and time again
Or would they cower
And whimper
While you simply walk forward
And face the day

Chest tight, heart beating against her skin
Fingers clasped around the coin purse
Wishing and hoping that it contained more
Than the spare wrinkled dollars it did
A crisp fifty, or even a twenty
But no, coins jingle and paper crumples
Only envious eyes fall on merch and media
Only despairing lips whisper
“Maybe next time”

The food I make
Is snarkier
Than I am
It’s a little disconcerting
sleepiest-kitten
Snoring quietly away
The sleepiest kitten
Dreams of yesterday
Chasing mice in fields
Eating captured prey
Flighty, joyous, free
To sleep is just to play
nightwings-schway
Shadows along darkened outdoor corridors
Stay safe, stay silent
From side to side
Stay serpentine so they cannot see you
Watching for their eyes far above
Red, like spotlights
And their #FFFFFF smiles
Wrap your fingers around the cords of your hoodie
Pull them tight, shut out the world
Pretend that approximately 50% of the passersby want to gobble you up
They criticize you for shutting yourself off
But they’re the ones who won’t take no for an answer

Sizzling spices serenade several senses:
Sapid sight for eight eyes,
Sweet smells for four noses,
Four chefs tossing ingredients
Into the pan, soon to be tasted
(The most important one)
A dish devised and divine
Repetition replaces raw “talent”
Create an experience
chistorm
There is rain in my gut
It cycles through my body
Occasionally leaking out my eyes
And my pores
There is lightning in my limbs
It thunders through my veins
From cloudy mind to clearer hands
Clenching fingers to fists
It fills my passion with voltage
Sparks of inspiration to light my way
I’m not asking for a change in the weather
But an umbrella would be nice

My mother is the normal one
Her sister is the odd
Her wispy wings ethereal
Out of sunbeams, a facade
Only in their rays I see
The twinkling glitter clear
And watch her as she smiles, whispers
“I don’t fly much now, my dear.”

I want to be alone
But loneliness surrounds me
And then I could do without isolation
@fallingangelwithpds
The descent isn’t what hurts
Rushing wind could be worse
No breath left to take away
The landing is where the danger lies
But with light-years to fall still
That isn’t too worrisome right now
I’ve still got time to consider the world
Before I smack face-first into it

The werewolf from far away sent a letter
(In absentia of the current ruler, fallen off a nearby cliff)
With credentials, and request to take the late king’s place
As monarch, considered, as the last had left no heirs
The royal court felt that one day a month
Of beasthood was worth enduring
For a queen of her caliber
And so, they approved, and sent back word
In three days, as requested, she arrived
In a lovely pearl carriage, in between the milling crowd
Ready to see and accept their new leader
The door opened, and out she stepped into the sun
In a gorgeous blue-green dress
With a bow atop her brow
Covered head to toe in well-brushed fur
She smiled warmly at the shocked congregation
Despite the razor-sharp fangs that lay upon her lip
Stepping forward to shake hands with her new court
She sheepishly informed them that, technically
The moon was always full, scientifically speaking
After a few moments of hesitation,
In which all were deathly quiet in anticipation,
The royal advisor smiled back
And invited the werewolf queen into her throne room
Face of fangs and all
lower-case-numbers
They tell me math is universally aligned
Into neat orderly categories
I don’t believe that there cannot be outliers
The little lower case numbers
Never featured, still existing
Because no one cares to learn how to downshift twice
But that doesn’t stop them from being who they are
I’m sorry if I didn’t mention you, Tumblr sometimes just doesn’t let me
