*updates on Current Events* Once again reminded of the line "Why should I read something you didn't even bother to write?" -Who cares! AI is here! Human creativity is the whole point -And people need to eat! So you use the anthropocidal plagiarism machine that guzzles water? #reading #writing

I made a candle. Not a tie-in, not a bonus — a thing I actually wanted on my own desk while I wrote. The Herbalist's Sanctuary Candle: eucalyptus, lavender, cedarwood, botanical undertones. It smells like the workroom I kept picturing. The shop is open now: jorysbooks-candle.dough.do

#WIP #Poetry #TreasureIsland A Rhythmic Voyage Third Movement, The Island Cleaves Interlude Jim at 14, reflects on the journey so far and introduces the Doctor's tale of the shipboard mutiny.

Treasure Island A Rhythmic Voyage by J.D. River
Third Movement The Island Cleaves
Interlude
1/2

I didn't know then what Ben's cave would mean—
that treasure scattered like seeds of grief
would root in each of us, unseen,
and choke whatever we believed.

I thought the gold was simply gold,
that maps were just lines on a page.
But curses don't need to be told—
they write themselves in blood and age.

I thought the sea held only light—
no secrets churned in its deep heart.
I never guessed what tides rewrite,
or what they tear, or pull apart.

It wasn't just the pirate's face
or blood, or guns, or buried greed.
It was the way that trust misplaced
can twist to hunger, clot to need.

I saw the Squire lose his mask—
the smile he wore back in the lane.
I saw the Captain drop his task
and wonder if command meant pain.

I saw the Doctor watch a man
go mad with thirst beside the mast—
and though he knelt, and worked, and ran,
there was no way to change the past.

Two years have passed since then. Two years.
The Doctor says that words can heal—
that setting down what happened here
might ease the weight I've learned to feel.

I don't know if that's true. I know
that some nights still I wake and see
poor Tommy's eyes, still wide and slow—
or hear the tap that followed me.

But this I try: to trace the line
from boy to—what? Not man. Not yet.
Just someone who can read the signs
that younger Jim had never met.

But here's the part I didn't see—
the hours when I fled from shore,
the Doctor fought. The Squire. Redruth.
While I hid with Ben's strange truth.

I didn't know that men had died.
I didn't know the fort was won
by inches, blood, and stubborn pride—
before I ever saw the sun
rise over walls they'd built at night,
while Silver hunted, rage-made blind.
I thought myself the only fight—
but left my brothers far behind.

I didn't know that men had died.
I didn't know the fort was won
by inches, blood, and stubborn pride—
before I ever saw the sun
rise over walls they'd built at night,
while Silver hunted, rage-made blind.
I thought myself the only fight—
but left my brothers far behind.

The Doctor told me, days from then,
what happened while I ran and hid.
He didn't judge. He just said, "Jim,
You'll want to know what each man did."

What follows here, the Doctor wrote—
or spoke, and I've set down his words.
The voice will change. You'll hear his note:
more measured, calm, precisely heard.

He speaks of siege and fire and loss,
of men who held when hope ran thin.
He speaks of Silver's final toss—
the moment when the war begins.

And when he's done, you'll find me there:
a boy who'd fled, now coming home—
around the fort's rough-timbered square,
no longer quite so scared, alone.

The Doctor speaks. I step aside.
This movement closes with his view:
of how the loyal fought and died,
and what they feared I wouldn’t do.
