“THE SUNNY SIDE” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #103

"Get your coat and grab your hat, leave your troubles on your doorstep, just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street…." "Oh, will you just shut up!" Adele screamed out as the text and the singing of the absurd song dimly lit the dark around her, "There are no coats, no hats! No doorsteps!" She paused, hearing silence she added "And for certain there's no damn sun!" She then began to shutter, crying out in great heaves of despair. "We blew it all away! We blew it all away! Adele sobbed, the cocoon enveloping her, however didn’t...

“THE LOOK AWAY MIRROR” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #101

There was a time, I looked into a mirror, for an answer when I didn't know the question. So all I saw was the red-brown skin of my complexion, the dark, hollow look of my eyes and I watched my lips move in silent prayer for relief to my misery. I had come to the end of myself, I was in trouble and there was no one to help. Viewing my pitiful face gave me no encouragement, so I turned away. A sound of a wind moving through trees caught my attention, it wasn’t from outside my room, but from the mirror. I looked into it again, but I had no...

“THE FEAST” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #100

They are outdoor affairs, They are always outdoor affairs. There is an affair for every season and whether the days are long or short, it is always a joyous occasion when my guests feast.  The table is long so many can come. The foods favored by many are spread wide around the table while the favorites of the few are placed in corners, still easily found. The feast of the summer is the most elaborate. So many good things are in season. I chop and sort, mix and blend. I mold and shape to please the eye and then the palate. Some...

“THE DANCE OF SUMMER ” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #99

The first time I saw her, she was dancing on the beach. What a beautiful vision, her rhythmic movements flowed as gentle as the ocean waves behind her. I'd never seen such a style of dance before, but at seventeen years old, I hadn't seen much of anything at all.     I was taking my morning walk on the beach. My injury from a qualifying floor gymnastic routine was not deemed serious enough for surgery. Also there was no time  before the competition for a recovery from surgery  This  left only one option, ...

“ A SONG FOR GALE” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #98

"It all began with her," Clodagh said in her usual intriguing way, "she washed up on the rocky shore, just below Finnegan's Point.."Sara could tell her friend Clodagh was winding up to begin the dramatic story of the person to whom the festival of Galen was named. This was the first time however, she had heard it surrounded by the origin place of the myth itself. Clodagh had listeners there on the train, mostly tourists traveling to the festival with the train filling with more people at every stop."Just a wee lass she was, yo...

“THROUGH THE WINDOW OF MY SOUL ” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #97

                                   It's night again and I've crept above ground to my window to watch the activities in the main square. I have come to watch every night since the strangers came into our village. They are soldiers. The only words I have for them are cruel and evil. They have been set upon us by a man seeking to rule over us. We, who have been free for ...

“The Peacemaker ” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #96

“I’ll ask again,” The Deputy continued, shifting his weight nervously from one foot to the other, “What’s your business here?” Deputy Abel James already knew the answer, but wanted the old man to play along, since there were many patrons present in the tavern. Some of those same patrons had made complaints about the strange old man, who seemed to be asking a lot of penetrating questions of the people. To them this stranger was just nosing around too much and the small, close community of dairy and produce farmers found him unsettling. &...

“The Three Chord Rhapsody ” by Onyxx Moon

Submitted to Contest #95

THE THREE CHORD RHAPSODY  Mace sat slumped in a chair in front of a mirror. He was in his dressing room, attempting to prepare himself for a performance. His long dark hair hung in ragged tangles down to his shoulders and the bags under his eyes betrayed a previous night of a raucous party with drugs and alcohol.This had been his life and no matter how he tried, Mace couldn't remember when this life he was living really began.  All he knew was his music no longer thrilled him when he played it, the screaming fans no longer insp...

"You are such a good guy, Paresh!" Zarina said breathlessly, as she scooped more bags of basmati rice, along with an equal number of bags of maida flour into the grocery cart Paresh was pushing. "I mean, to let us have the party for Nafisa at your uncle’s! She continued, "Now we can give her a beautiful party!" Before he could respond she was off again, this time to the fresh fruit aisle. Paresh simply sighed and followed behind slowly. "What did she expect," he thought to himself, "Nafisa is one of us after all," he sighed deeply as he...

I've loved to write for a long time. It lets me be people I can never be, lets me do things I could never do. Nothing is impossible! Thats what one of my favorite writers told me, my son.
