Character Development Challenges 1. The Silent Scene…

I awoke to find myself bathed in sweat and full of sin for what I'd dreamt. Who would have thought it not a dream but a premonition of days to come and the hollow that I've become since you've been away. An empty tomb inside my soul that used to be filled with all your love and every better part of me.

in every way a soul

can be felt, thus I

know what if feels like

to be misunderstood

in every way.

behind the city stretched the development like a sin a forest reduced to the plains not a valley to be seen but one hill remained and we were chocolate-bold hot with marshmallows

there was a door that wasn’t a smile pretending to be Aunt Lucile but was Uncle Jax who no one left us around alone like something caged in an unseen zoo

the voice welcomed us into the hinterland beautiful like storms but nothing like rainbows and some small part of whispered days had it not been the weekend there were gods that would have protected us

“Saturn does not care for you,” she said understanding – those eyes always did – and there was music further in the beat matching paces with our hearts and you turned and one of us said run but we were too far from the city from the safety from the world we knew

and the queen said, ‘you need not worry’ and two others left with our faces (we did worry but we did not understand could not understand and we made stories and poems because she was old and power but could create nothing of her own)

and one day the way home was gone and the queen had a shadowed frown and the stories could no longer save us everything we see we cannot unsee somewhere the sky licked deep brown-grey of pollution and I would have given anything to see that again
