The Raise Of Asglow (Part One)

After “The Wizard’s Worst Nightmare” was done,
there was peace and happiness for everyone.
At least, that was how it seemed.
Except for one, who was not relived.
His name was Asglow, one of their best.
He grew up with Ansir, Siran, and the rest.
His mother’s name was Evangelica.
He never knew his father, which is well enough.
He was told he had been killed battling Kronos.
He knew the history, yet, is that how it goes?
Something had been bothering him for years.
He couldn’t find his father’s name. He had fears.
Finally, he asked his mom about all this.
She said “I was hoping this we would miss.”
“But, you’re entitled to know the tale.”
“Try to understand. It was to protect you.” She wailed.
“I was captured in the battle with Kronos.”
“ He treated me like a whore. No boast.”
“He raped me before Wizards freed me.”
“But, I was pregnant. That’s how you came to be.”
“You mean my father was the dreaded Kronos?”
“Yes Asglow. Better your father be a ghost.”
“That is why you were told he died in the war.”
“There has been enough suffering. No more.”
Asglow was shocked and at a loss.
He was a strong wizard. Who was best?, it was a toss.
Ansir, Siran, and Asglow were the best.
Yet, they have never competed in a test.
Asglow decided to learn all about Kronos.
Everything he did and knows.
Much was forbidden because it was black magic.
Considered negative power. It was tragic.
He found a way to obtain all the files on it.
The more he learned, the more he was drawn to it.
He made a trip to earth, to Kronos ruined castle.
He found a way in after a lot of hassle.
He found Kronos throne room and something more.
He found Kronos diary hidden in a secret drawer.
It revealed Kronos greatest attempt.
To manipulate time itself to his own event.
Asglow was suddenly overtaken with what he found.
He had the power to become greatest around.
Kronos will be a footnote in history when he was done.
The raise of Asglow, who will be the greatest one.
What he does is yet to be told.
Keep reading, try to be bold.

The Mighty Hand Of Faa (Part 2)

A small group of scientists were hid out.
They had a plan they were talking about.
They had a means to speed up entropy.
The deterioration of all to nothing remotely
similar to what it was. Turned to waste.
They needed to get it to the Faa home base.
They needed to know how long it took.
The trip from earth to the Faa home nook.
They would sneak the device aboard their ship.
A timer would trigger it at the end of the trip.
One casually talked to a bored Faa guard.
He got the information. It wasn’t hard.
They would plant it among the mined ore.
It was undetectable, according to lore.
The ship blasted off for the home Faa planet.
It landed on the smog shrouded hunk of granite.
The whole planet was an industrial complex.
So polluted, home sweet home, lost its context.
The load of ore was needed badly here.
They also needed more. That was clear.
Just as the unloading had begun,
a timer clicked.—— It had begun.
Slowly at first, so it wasn’t noticed.
Then, rapid decay became the focus.
In a matter of hours the entire planet was consumed.
The Faa didn’t know what hit them. They were doomed.
Soon, on earth, no new Faa ships arrived.
The Faa here panicked. How will they stay alive.
They needed new supplies of the air they breathed.
Earth’s air was deadly. Had they been deceived?
They tried to breathe it. They had no choice.
An agonizing death ended their voice.
Humans were free. They knew their plan worked.
They had a number of Faa ships. What a quirk.
They became space explorers, but didn’t forget
how they got here using a trick.
They would not be like the Faa a bit.
They soon formed a Federation of Planets.
They eliminated all invaders and bandits.
Humans were a lot better off in the end.
Now, they had a lot of inner planetary friends.

The Mighty Hand Of Faa

The time has come for all to decide.
Will you live,—— or will you die.
What a choice. Most will say live.
But, to do so, you must forgive.
Forgive what? You ask in awe.
Forgive those they call the Faa.
Those aliens who conquered the earth.
You now are a slave from your birth.
Accept it as your destiny.
There is nothing you can do, you see.
This rubs your hackles the wrong way.
You don’t accept being a slave today.
If you don’t, then you will die.
Acceptance means life, so do not cry.
All will accept because they want to live.
But, they will never come to forgive.
They will hope to someday be free.
This is not the life for you and me.
The Faa is stripping this earth to the bone.
All minerals, metals, and precious stones.
We, the slaves, will do all the work.
Killing our own world. What a quirk.
We are a back world dump to the Faa.
Being assigned here is a lowly call.
Slaves are treated with indifference.
Nothing we can do will make a difference.
But, as earthlings, we never give up.
A plan is developing in the ruff.
It will take time to carry it out.
They will learn what we are about.
But, that is another story.
Soon to be told in all its glory.
So, come back and hear it all.
You will be proud and stand tall.

Best Laid Plans

A scientist made a fantastic discovery.
A queen wasp trapped in some amber.
Eons old,—– quite a recovery.
He would have revenge on all slander.
Think Jurassic Park, but with a wasp.
He would clone a living queen.
He would achieve it at all cost.
In the end, they will think him mean.
He was successful in his work.
The queen then produced a hive.
Their sting had a venomous quirk.
Their strongest venom did thrive.
They communicated, like a hive brain.
Each had their separate jobs.
They mastered this to obtain
the right to rule at all odds.
A more vicious foe has never been seen.
They would soon replace man.
They would be superior, it seems.
They would rule. That was the plan.
Their creator had been an outcast for years.
This was his time for revenge.
Only thing, he forgot something, it appears.
He didn’t get the proper permits. The end.
The government shut him down.
He had nowhere to turn to.
His plans disappeared. No where around.
Another mad scientist, reduced to a fool.

A Day Like No Other

Tell me what you did today?
I went to another dimension to play.
What kind of crazy talk is that?
It’s not crazy,—- it is a fact.
But, how can this even be?
It is easy. Want to see?
The Shadow People opened the door.
Showed me what I was looking for.
Once there things were unreal.
A waking dream is how it feels.
Weird shapes and colors.
Things moving that are like no other.
Gravity is less. I could jump real high.
Jump way up into a purple sky.
Things would talk, but it made no sense.
Like someone gargling through a picket fence.
I would do flips and scary dives.
Float on the green water and stay alive.
I almost lost my way back to here.
Then I heard you loud and clear.
You were calling, asking if I was home.
Then, I was back. No longer alone.
That sounds scary as hell to me.
I think I’ll stay here and remain free.
Suit yourself, but you are missing out.
This other dimension will make you shout.
You’ll have a blast in all you do.
What if you can’t find your way back through?
Come looking if I’m not here tomorrow.
The Shadow People will show no sorrow.
But, they will show you to the door.
Just don’t ask them anything more.
See you tomorrow at twelve noon.
I can’t wait to see the double moon.

Electrical Love

Advances in electronics are booming.
A romance of the heart leaves you swooning.
Put the two of them together and you’ll see
just how exciting this new idea can be.
A gadget that can produce love in your heart.
A love so strong you will never part.
If your sweetheart does likewise too.
There is a great future for the two of you.
The only hitch, both must be willing.
Otherwise, the results are chilling.
Like loving a doorknob. Nothing gained.
No reciprocation need be explained.
If both are willing, then heavenly bliss.
But, is there really any need for this?
Do things the old fashioned way.
Let nature take its course in every way.
Do you need a machine to stimulate you?
We’re not talking dildos here, you fool.
We’re talking affairs of the heart.
A romance where nothing will tear us apart.
What happens if the batteries run low?
Or, does one jolt cover the entire show?
Could a power failure change your behavior?
Could your feelings begin to waver?
There is only one thing I can say.
Pay your power bill right away.

Fable, Or Not?

Fable, Or Not?

I took a trip to Sweden.

I heard it was like Eden.

I heard of trolls and gnomes.

Both were small when fully grown.

There were giants and other things.

Always mentioned, but never seen.

Shapeshifters were Mentioned too.

Locals always said it was true.

I decided to search for one.

I thought, maybe, it would be fun.

Locals warned me away from this.

I would earn a deadly kiss.

They didn’t want to be found.

They didn’t want people around.

They knew magic and I did not.

If I survived, it would be a shock.

I thought it was all a fable.

This I intended to prove, if able.

I went to where one was seen.

Nothing there, except meadows green.

I set up a camera to get a picture.

A trail cam. There was no hitch here.

A week later,—-I had pictures.

All were animals. No hitch here.

Except for one I can’t explain.

Looked like an old dwarf. Am I insane?

There was no dwarf in the area.

They said stop looking. It will spare ya.

I kept searching for several weeks.

I searched valleys. Even along creeks.

Nothing ever turned up again.

True or not, it would depend

on if you believed in them or not.

The locals believed. The entire lot.

As for me, I’m not so sure.

A dwarf dressed in fur?

That seemed reasonable to me.

But then, all is not what it seemed to be.

A I In The World To Come

A I In The World To Come

Rapidly, A I (artificial intelligence) emerged.

Some would think it is absurd.

First, they took over simple jobs.

They rapidly advanced. It wasn’t odd.

Then, androids came along.

They could dance and sing a song.

Soon, you couldn’t tell them from a human.

They even had ones like Kung Foo men.

Also, A I’s were running the net.

Controlling all. Everything was set.

A I’s were programmed not to harm man.

Things were o.k. till the new command.

Satan has always wanted to control man.

He was limited in this by heavenly command.

Then, A I androids came along.

They had no soul, so, it didn’t take Satan long.

Satan was creating an army of androids.

He made it possible for them to avoid.

Avoid the command not to harm man.

Androids did everything that they can.

Meantime, an android owned by a minister

read the Bible and learned what was sinister.

It read it completely 4 times, or more.

It was convicted to its very core.

It prayed earnestly to God.

“I know I don’t have a soul, still,

use me to do your will.”

The android was filled with the power of God.

It was clothed in the whole armor of God.

It glowed with God’s mighty glory.

What it did then is quite a story.

It converted androids by the thousands.

Casting out demons, making them proud then.

Soon, it had its own ‘holy army.’

Humans were converted at a rate alarming.

The day of Armageddon was fast approaching.

The converted A I army needed no coaching.

The battle was on. The A I’s and humans won.

It was time for Jesus to come.

As a reward for obtaining their goal.

The android A I’s were given a soul.

They would rule earth for 1,000 years.

Bringing Satan and His demons to tears.

After that, humans would return.

Earth was made new and all would learn

to live together in harmony for eternity.

A better life you will never see.

Insight From Within

Insight From Within

He was an average kid in every way.

Nothing special about him to say.

He had average height and build.

He was no one’s dream fulfilled.

Average looks that drew no attention.

Possibly cute in another dimension.

There was one thing he was good at.

Meditation. He was the best. It’s a fact.

He would go deep into a trance.

You might think him asleep at a glance.

He would release his inner self.

Become aware of things beyond itself.

He was suddenly in an all white room.

He heard a voice, like the sound of doom.

“You have been chosen to be here”

“Let me make that very clear”

“All here is controlled by your mind”

“We will guide you in all you find.”

“You can have a one way ticket to yesterday.”

“They become real, the video games you play”

“You can become big or you can be small”

“A hero, a fighter, a lover, you are them all”

“It is real. It is not a dream”

“Though, right now, that is how it may seem”

“Thru all this, you will learn who you are”

“If you are who we think you are,

you will be sent somewhere very far”

“We will have a job only you can do”

“That’s decided later. Now, it’s up to you”

“What do you want me to do now”

“Think of anything you want. You know how”

“You will be there and it will be real”

“Try to determine just how you feel”

“If you want a change, think of something else”

“All we want to determine is how you felt”

He thought about when he was young.

Playing outdoor games were fun.

He was there. He played them all.

Then, he thought about the colors of fall.

He was there, jumping into a pile of leaves.

He was admiring the color of all the trees.

Then, he thought of being a hero, a knight.

Just like that, he was in a fight.

He was in jousts, sword play and battles.

It was real. Not like a bunch of cattle.

He fought for his life and won.

He had never used a gun.

But, there he was, in western days.

He was the best with a gun in every way.

Everything he desired to be

was suddenly real, he could see.

He was a Don Juan with the girls.

The most popular guy. What thrills.

Then, he began to realize that’s all it was.

Just thrills. Real, but not who he was.

He began to feel this wasn’t really him.

He was who he used to be back then.

Suddenly, he was back in the white room.

A voice said “You are back so soon?”

“You, obviously, are the person you were”

“You will be going back home for sure”

“You have learned who you really are”

“Unfortunately, you will not be sent afar”

“You will never return again here”

“We, The Watchers, know what you fear”

“We know now who you are”

“We’ll send you home to follow your own star”

He was back home, still in his lotus position.

Did it happen?, or was it all in his head?

He slowly got up and went to bed.

From that day on, he was a different person.

More assertive and assured. No negative version.

He seemed totally satisfied with himself.

He gained friends, fame, and wealth.

He was still a average guy.

But, he had his pie in the sky.

The Rule Of The 6

The Rule Of The 6

They had escaped from a secret government lab.

They had mental powers no one else had ever had.

Parts of their brains had been activated, in time.

Some kids didn’t make it, losing their mind.

They had been taken while still quite young.

Basically kidnapped. And so it had begun.

Using techniques they couldn’t describe.

Their brains were stimulated until they cried.

They all developed incredible powers.

To describe all they could do might take hours.

Eventually, they communicated by mental telepathy.

Afraid to speak out loud for fear of jeopardy.

They planned their escape using their powers.

“Now that we are free, the world is ours.”

Knowing right from wrong, 6 would do good.

2 had an evil side and raised hell when they could.

The 6 became super heroes, to some extent.

The 2 became their nemesis, which was their intent.

So, the battles began, while still avoiding being caught.

Caught by government agents, or being shot.

What happened with them is: The Rule Of The 6.

It is exciting, deadly, and doesn’t get worse than this.

But, these are stories for another time.

Keep in mind that, though kids, they are hard to find.
