This week’s verse moves from an experimental verse about a chance meeting to a science fiction verse that speculates on the secrets held in stories. It is taken from 366 Days of Poetry , a collection of mixed-genre poetry released in 2016. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------   How the Stories Fly From centuries gone by, how the stories dance and fly, how they dance and fly and bend the present troubled times of men, and how we have paid no heed to every story deed, to our past of present’s creed, denied the tales which tell us how to stop the ever-present bleed. Our souls are running dry, and we’ve no more tears to cry. The days, the days they fly, as we ignore the stories flowing by.

LAST WEEK, Simone revealed that the mutation was bringing out the killer in her. This week, Tiger says not to let it worry her; that she'll still be Simone to him. Chapter 4 Excerpt – Get Better Soon Dear Simone To say your last letter was disturbing is an understatement. I’ve never had anyone who wanted to eat me, before. I mean, I’ve had people hunt me. FedExplore did that with its bounty hunters, and the aliens definitely did that, but they were taking everyone they could get. I’m thinking that’s the closest thing to what you mean—the aliens.

In the meantime, you can find them on this blog, until one week after...
