InMon-ster: Deathly Living Scrolls

I wasn’t planning to post anything today; but Billie Jo tempted me with her entry for BeKindWrite’s celebratory Birthday Inspirational Monday post InMon-ster: Deadly Papers.

The prompts I had to work with are:

Deadly paper / The city that never wakes / Deafening / Last place you look / They took it away

BeKindWrite was not mean with the rules; therefore we had free reign on how to work the pieces; the only condition was to use the prompts (all or a few) in any way we may interpret it.

I could not wait to sink my teeth into this.  I hope you enjoy what my muse became.

Deathly Living Scrolls

It stank of all things putrid;

life, decaying.

My sunken feet disintegrating in gluke

-their deafening vile life forms

gnawing into flesh, hammering away.

Pain searing, my skin burning

-yet I still hide, the last place you’ll look;

never waking city

-except its’ crippling invisible organisms;

alive, they’re very much alive,

sinking their nashers’

on soft, moist skin

it bleeds –oh how it bleeds

-yet still I hide,

in putrid things that stink;

life, sleeping, decaying.

Please note:  There will be some changes coming to the schedule at yikici (it’s been too manic and I have not been able to adhere to it as I had intended to; therefore, some pacing will be considered); I will post an article soon(ish) with the full lowdown, until then keep an eye out for posts that will likely to turn-up unannounced.

Stay good and keep that sunshine smile-a-going.
