A soulless man, with an empty grin. They've opened up the asylum doors. I could have been anything. No DM's unless we're dating.

Writers belonging lies in thresholds of air. In doorways. In the halt. They root themselves in living & leaving. On the horizon that stings & the proximity that steadies. Their chosen ground is the almost illicit border where worlds blur. Or begin. #vss365 #prompt Dec 11 #illicit 🖼️ Liminal Gallery

From scraps of silence trembling beside sudden bursts of thought, a story we have long feared begins to gather. Farewell to the hesitant preludes! Make a place for a raw soliloquy. What was stifled has finally found the ribs to break through. #vss365 #prompt December 8 #soliloquy #art ~ Lily

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire. Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines. Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

They patrolled the racks for signs of leaks or waking. Indications of sentience were to be reported immediately. 
Originally, his superior had sprung one of them for a bit of fun. A boy. Though Grey had reported the nonce and got him canned, he could swear the boy reacted to him whenever he patrolled. He felt hateful eyes upon him, though the tests said it was impossible. He swore the lad remembered, knew it was wrong and was biding his time.

What is clear as day, I have learned, is that the skill & knowledge within this community, is immeasurable. thank you for sharing Here’s a quote that made me think … Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever M. Gandhi The #vss365 #prompt for 27 Nov #learning

Nights had run long for weeks now, but, ultimately, day and night were ephemeral concepts when you spent most of your time in space. Dylan caught the #reflection of his face on one of Magpie’s consoles and mused that it was a good thing he wasn’t in a proper military. He looked a mess. #vss365

Rory had made many mistakes while playing the game. Upon #reflection, most of those mistakes were largely his own fault, but that was the beauty of the game. Mistakes weren’t fatal. Well, they quite often were, but mortality in the game was a rather fluid affair and being dead temporary. #vss365

#vss365 #reflection If your greatest wish For your desired future Is a stellar career as a seer Then you need to acquire An inquisitive eye A crystall ball And know when to step Into the looking glass Telling futures Changes them Tricky to do more than stare And see more Than your own reflection

The ships screamed overhead, within the atmosphere of the moon, and Dylan checked the auto-chronometer. Fast, but simply not fast enough. They needed to eke out more speed, more manoeuvrability, more everything, He called up and told them to do it again, #timed once again until they got it. #vss365
