“From my mind it brews.
A cauldron of magick spells,
and all I must say.”
THE THREE WITCHES
An ORIGINAL HELLENIC-INSPIRED FAIRY TALE There was once a temple, at the top of the most beautiful of mountains, in the holiest of all lands. In the center of this temple, lived the most precious Flame of the World, forever a light, keeping Gaia, the World, alive with her flicker. Tending to the fire were…

I was born in Manhattan and raised in the South Bronx. I wasn’t allowed to hang out in the streets. The only sleepovers I had were with my cousins. My parents barely let me hang out with friends after school. Papi was an alcoholic. He loved horror, sci-fi, making us laugh, barbecues, & Latin jazz.…

A short story about the darkness of the soul. “Thank you for having me, Miles,” Clementine Harvey said into the bulbous, expensive microphone in her hand.

There was only so much abuse that she could take before the monster inside her was unleashed. Bruises covered her arms and legs. Her tongue was still swollen and tender because of an “accidental” elbow to the face. Her fingernails were broken and ragged. Dark circles grew increasingly more pronounced. Her smile lost its charm,…

I used to have a dream, more like a fantasy. Walking along a purple beach. Almost like the inside of a planetarium, only real and vast. There was a cosmic quality to the sky, not like a regular beachy skyscape. It was like it was a beach on another planet. I was draped in a…
