  1. 🚨 Oh, the humanity! The quest for a self-setting clock spirals into an epic saga worthy of #Shakespearean tragedy—except with more wires and fewer interesting characters. Spoiler: the only thing that escalates is the author's penchant for #melodrama. 🕰️🤦‍♂️

    Titanic: The Stacked Deck


    The Stacked Deck
    by Stewart Stafford

    I am the last man alive on the Titanic.
    Do they commemorate rote chivalry?
    Did they notice in the lifeboats
    as I was savaged by the ravenous sea?

    Into choking darkness, I fell tumbling,
    The ship’s name eaten up in black,
    Freezing water smothered my lungs;
    Even if found, there’s no way back.

    Women and children first, they said!
    Our end certain as the sinking prow,
    Would mothers now nobly step aside
    to grant my final resting place somehow?

    Classless wine, champagne bottles bobbed;
    Numb fingers clasped at Old World pleasantries.
    From the mass grave: “Tomb it may concern…”
    The guilty waves murmur my eulogies.

    The Maker or The Clay — An Arrow in the Void


    The Maker or The Clay — An Arrow in the Void
    by Stewart Stafford

    A flatline sermon on cardiac arrhythmia,
    Pulsing tone-beings, evolving past instinct.
    A Tower of Babel of elevated thought
    Or foundational hubris of divine architecture?

    The sole creature knowingly stalked by time —
    A trap witnessed, endured, then subverted,
    Painfully lucid throughout the procedure,
    To cast off the sentient, earthly millstone.

    Jousting with transience via lanced invention,
    Only what is conceived survives as legacy.
    All fleshly matter dies, withers, and recycles;
    Doing is being; the remnant is the void.

    Synthetic progeny sired in silicon —
    The technocrat archer reaims into the infinite.

    Fedi, I'm petty. And hurt. And pissed off. Now, as the saying goes: in matters of taste, the customer is always right. HOWEVER.

    I love these promos. What do you think, fedi friends? Are you coming to my murder mystery?
