short story
Purple Pebble
Was I visible? I don’t know, I couldn’t know, I saw myself through his mind. The frothy waves unburying me from the warm sand. I felt something poking me, it was not very smart, I repelled it, I needed brain power, at least until I could replenish myself. I felt soft claws digging me out, […]
Worm
We had what we wanted from each other. You can’t pretend you are sick with me and of me. You wanted me, I am here by no accident. You had prepared the right soil, the right temperature and the food I relished the most. You even gave me a family. Your huge eyes searched for […]
CDS coordinator
She was lazy. The files accumulated on her desk, she scratched her belly and her index finger adventured into her belly button, removing a stinky crust. She ate the half sandwich forgotten on her desk for days and tossed both human and cat files on her desk. “CDS working again!” She stapled the files together, […]
Lady cake
Lady cake was coming slowly, with tiny tiny steps, scared of pebbles and dust, holding her crown with one hand and a small fan in the other. Lady cake understood she was delicate, round and heavy. Lady cake walked a beaten pathway. She did not dare to look at her own feet but felt the […]
The tower
It was not that big, perhaps even small, I couldn’t tell, the tower was destroyed. The base survived with the door frame, still standing with only five steps of the stairs, I came here for the first time to hide after doing mischief at home. “First time you came, you were this tiny”. He pointed […]
Natural predator
“She’s coming, she’s coming!” Shivering, the voice left his body squeaking, he heard soft steps, his eyes were covered by the wool blanket. “C’mon, now!”, all of them held hands and tried to go to the bottom of the pit. It was too late, the paw clanged on the blanket, they saw her claws piercing […]
Sewer mermaid pt. 2
“I am a warrior, you wouldn’t understand.” Manu looked at the merman, head to tail, his worm was not thick, it danced too much on her wrist. She preferred merman that possessed a fat worm, it was nothing personal, just her preference, really. She moved the hook on the left corner of her mouth with […]
It was born dead
It was born dead, you and I. We were complete strangers, then strangers that got intimate and back to complete strangers again. I came home and took a hot shower. I squeezed three pumps of body wash on my washcloth to scratch you completely out of my skin and went to sleep. I had to […]
The hatch of Zag
Slow and surely, he woke up, his tiny fingers stretched and contracted, he felt the skin of the palms and closed and opened the hands many times, instinctively he rotated his wrists, and the elbows also woke up, the muscle impulse made his hands touch his long face and feel his baby pointy teeth and […]
Magic
I was laying down, belly up, on top of my thin rubbery mat resting after eight roll ups. The roof was partially in glass, I noticed how they had never gone up and cleaned, dead leaves, tiny branches and a dead bird, the milky glass prevented me from seeing distinctly the decomposing animal. It was […]
