Prying back her man’s rough outer layer
Exposed the fact that he was surprisingly human
Except she didn’t want to believe that
Lifting his freshly stilled heart out of the way, she continued to look for essence of monster
Prying back her man’s rough outer layer
Exposed the fact that he was surprisingly human
Except she didn’t want to believe that
Lifting his freshly stilled heart out of the way, she continued to look for essence of monster
She turned up the heat in the chili, drop by evil-looking drop of ghost pepper essence
Perspiration beaded along his forehead and dribbled into his eyes at first bite
It gave his body an illusion of cooling, but the heat just kept climbing
Couldn’t believe there was a time before the all-consuming fiery pain
Eventually, his mouth recovered, but he knew round two was coming

Ruby red apples hung low on overladen branches
It was a siren call of fall
Promising a bounty of crisp sweet-tart experiences
Embracing the essence of the season

Distilling the world into its essence
Rebranding it as makebelieve
It could be labeled the fundamentals of insanity
Vivian loved it when she played with the alchemy
Eventually, her internal philosopher’s stone might create gold
