Monday, 1 February 2010. The curl of smoke rises slowly; grey figures dance and twirl within the fading mist. Their voices wash over me, haunting and melodious. The angels that frolic within the swirling clouds will protect me from Them. When the shadows lengthen, They will come. I trail my fingers through the craters on my arms; tracing silken paths that lead to Heaven. Heaven can wait, I watched that once, where? Do they get the reaction we do out there from the nine to fivers? They shrink from us as w...

Monday, 26 October 2009. The doors slam as they depart and it is left cowering in a bloodied heap. “Sophiel, so very glad you could make it. I hope the journey was not too unpleasant? 8221; She gazes through eyes still adjusting to the light to see one the Seraphim seated on a dais above her, fingers steepled against his chin. “He has given instruction that you may be released; once certain conditions have been agreed upon, of course.” Was this more punishment? Thursday, 8 October 2009. So why am I here?

Tuesday, 30 June 2009. 8221; and so yet again it begins. Well, yeah of course it's you but, God I'm nervous. I've been wandering round for all weekend trying to find you. Those woods are huge! 8221; Somebody had been most helpful in approximating my location a couple of years back deep within the tangle of wires people sift through for information nowadays. Once again, one of them had found me. “Would you like something cold to drink? 8221; He knows everything about me? Does she have a sister? 8217; as I...

Thursday, 26 November 2009. The great metal beasts rise into the sky and we return once more to the cells where we stay until we are called. Monday, 16 November 2009. Fall of the Nizari. As I stepped through the door, I could just make out the dark figure in the corner. The embers in the fireplace cast an orange glow in the otherwise unlit room. 8220;Must we always engage in such theatrics? 8221; I asked with a sigh as I crossed to light the torches on the far wall. 8220;We made peace with the khan’...

Monday, 28 September 2009. 8220;So are you coming? The hypnotic swish of the oars as they drifted slowly downstream lent an air of peacefulness that was welcome after the constant noise and grime of the minibus they had ridden from the town at the base of Mount Mangengenge. The mountain was named after the Lingala word for shining. Did anything shine here? Where’s the food? 8221; Simon asked bewildered. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Thursday, 1 October 2009. Officer Petrie looked down on the broken body and wondered what kind of world he lived in where man could be capable of such a thing. 8220;Jesus Mick, will you give it a fucking rest” he shouted at his partner who was doubled up and retching uncontrollably. Petrie dragged Mick away from the body towards the end of the alley. 8220;Stay there” he ordered and returned to the shapeless form hidden behind the nightclub bins. 8220;Yeah, we’ve got another one.”. 8220;You found her?

Sunday, 31 January 2010. No fourteen year old should have to go through this. As I back slowly into the dark alley I beckon him to follow, shaking with the grotesque horror of what I must do. I have no choice. Looking over his shoulder constantly he shuffles nervously towards me. Away from the glare of the streetlights he seems to grow a little in confidence. “How much? I wait alone in the dark, hoping that he’ll not return. I sink beneath the quilt hoping that the drink has dulled his craving. I hol...
