It was that time of year again. Everybody’s favorite holiday: The Eleusinian Mysteries* during which the hallucinogen Kykeon** was consumed. “Thank Zeus we are almost there! Arthur said. “I can barely feel my feet!” “Yeah,” Ralph agreed. “But it’s worth it, man. You’ll see. Look! You can see the shadow of the Temple of Demeter in Eleusis! It won’t be long now.” Arthur sighed. “Again, Thank…

These two hotties have been best friends since kindergarten. Both sets of parents are practicing Naturists who met and became friends at a Naturist beach in Agios Ioannis on the island of Mykonos. They’ve remained close over the years so it was no surprise that the two boys would follow birthday suit. Rocco, who for some reason prefers riding his horse naked, is escorting his buddy Angelo home…

Hebe was a spoiled brat; no two ways about it. Being the daughter of Zeus and Hera, and now the wife of Heracles, not much was unavailable to her. In fact, she had never heard the word “No.” Hebe was obsessed with finding an elixir that would guarantee a forever youthful body and gorgeous face. She was still young and beautiful, and she aimed to stay that way. One evening the chemist brought…

I wrote this in 2020 for the dVerse Poet’s Pub. Today it is being repurposed for Fandango’s Flashback Friday. Vibrant autumn leaves decorating the lawn warm-spicing the air. 2. Wintertime’s leaves scrape and scratch along the sidewalk crunch beneath my boots. 3. Tiny, hopeful buds sprouting from dewy branches robin spies a worm

It had been her best friend’s house. Sheila had fond memories of the place, and especially the family. Although she’d only lived in the area for seven years, it had turned out to be the best part of her life. Tomorrow the house will be levelled. The parents had died, and the kids had neither the money nor the desire to make the necessary repairs. Sheila wished with all her heart that she could…

Of all the rides, Melanie loved the carousel best. Her favorite horse was Annie. If someone was already riding her, she’d patiently wait for the ride to end rather than choose another horse. Annie was painted pastel pink and white with bright, smiling eyes. There was something in those eyes that indicated a soul, life. None of the other horses had that look of ‘something more.’ Maybe that’s what…

This was originally written for the D’verse poets pub vin 2014. It is now repurposed for Fandango’s Flashback Friday. After you, I never felt clean. No matter how many showers or how hard I scrubbed there always seemed to be a smudge of filth, a foul blemish permeating my heart my soul— my very being— a putrid reminder of you.
