I am walking in glass slippers Through pools of silver fire Across the sun rising inside the earth Dark trees tremble in this mirror world Rain soaked grass shadows the light breaking morning Silent, alone, I dream of laughter The clawed queen holds my voice Bound in a golden hair she ripped from my head I dare not speak in case the universe dissolves The crystal slippers glitter The queen's gift, the mark of possession Stumbling forward, a hidden stone shatters the glass Dark blood roses tangle across the sun Feeding the earth with flowers seeded from pain A cry, my first, breaks the silence I kneel in the rainwater, gathering the fragments Expecting sharp nails to tear my skin Poisoned air to close up my throat Instead, sweet lilacs fall from my mouth In the distance a scream and the snapping of talons I am singing and walking with blood soaked feet My words are stars carried on the morning Sugared petals glowing in the sun Mary Josefina Cade
Cigarette pollution
I spend lots of time staring into puddles and pools of water. Definitely a minority activity, but I enjoy it. Discarded cigarette stubs float around in many of these puddles and pools. Knowing people who suffer from lung disease after long term smoking, I'm issuing my own public health warning. Give up smoking now Please! https://soundcloud.com/missmoini What a great voice.
London buses are doing their bit to beautify the city. Even if it means leaving the windows unwashed. http://www.lbc.co.uk/the-history-of-london-buses---in-pictures-48649/album/the_history_of_london_buses___in_pictures/1518#23055
Online dragon chasing, with a great prize. Twelve year old Ben and Tayo can't resist the new game, ZiyZo. Only...... ZiyZo is a cyber trap, laid by a magically talented young thief, the inventor of mobile/cell phone magic and text spells. The Thief has stolen the Magician's Fire, a small crystal ball that contains the power to control all electrical energy. In order to open the Magician's Fire the Thief needs to use traditional magic, cruel and terrifying traditional magic. In a very short time the two boys and their friends Jess, Kate and Arthur are placed in a situation of extreme danger.
In this extract Ben and Jess are inside the British Museum. The Thief is looking down at them from a balcony. He has activated three ZiyZo dragons as part of his plan to kidnap Ben. 4.17 ‘Look up you stupid boy. What’s this sudden interest in history?’ The Thief watched as the last flashes of purple light faded from the dragons that circled above Ben’s head. The three monsters vanished, dissolving into small sparks of electrical dust. ‘You’ve missed the dragons, mouse brain.’ His hands felt hot and sweaty as he pressed against the metal railing that lined the walkway. He leant over as far as possible, studying the cabinet where the children stood. ‘What the -?’ A golden circle of light, a circle that looked like a time travel disc, shone inside the cabinet. Behind it – no – NO - he couldn’t believe it. 4.18 ‘What’s that?’ Jess tapped the glass window of the cabinet. Ben smiled at her. ‘ZiyZo stuff.’ A circular black screen, about the size of a mini laptop, stood propped up behind the shining disc, glowing with blue light. ‘That must have been specially made for the game. It’s not like any monitor I’ve ever seen. It’s so small and chunky. Or maybe it’s the first screen ever, from when computers were invented. Good idea from the ZiyZo Zero. I’ll teach you how to play if you like. Once the game appears try to find a dragon, while I search for a control.’ Ben ran his hands around the solid base of the cabinet, feeling for some kind of hidden keypad. Jess laughed. ‘He doesn’t look like a dragon.’ Ben looked back inside the cabinet. A boy’s face showed on the monitor, pale and thin and surrounded by long straggly fair hair. Dark shadows lay under his grey eyes, the mark of someone who spent a lot of time indoors studying or gaming. Probably both, judging by the way his voice shook. He had the same crushed expression as Jess, a definite sign of pushy parents. The boy stared at them, his mouth trembling. ‘Come nearer, let me see you, I am not afraid.’ http://www.amazon.com/ZiyZo-The-Magicians-Fire-ebook/dp/B00A284XP8 |
