If you had a pair of butterfly wings
(lets not ask ourselves how
or begin to debate
the possibility of such a thing)
but lets say you had a pair
of butterfly wings
which suddenly burst
out from your back
with violent aplomb
and spread themselves out
shaking, wet, and shivering
translucent and captivating
cruelly capturing each
and every single
little diamond fracture of light
would you run to the nearest edge
of some height
and fling yourself away
[to try them out, of course]
or would you be tempted
by fear, by pain, by horror
to reach back and feel
their slippery, smooth texture
to run your hands along
their quivering surface
and rip them out?

The Magic Medallion - A TG Story
Will was a 18 year old self centred and lonely white man who had this unhealthy obsession with attractive women. He had this belief that all girls were born and raised to be housewives who cooked, cleaned, and always followed their husband’s orders, although this was what his family had been telling him ever since he was a young boy. Will also preferred girls with well developed and curved out bodies with childlike, innocent, and submissive personalities that matched. Will loved his idealized woman view with as much enthusiasm as he hated modern Western ones. He felt that especially American girls these days were just vain and manipulative sluts who acted like whores to get whatever they wanted; they could all do with some modifications to put it one way, which in Will’s mind was either looking like supermodels or dressing traditionally conservative when going outside. As you might have guessed, Will was a virgin who’d never kissed a girl before, any women who weren’t put off by his

Cliffjumper finally gets his memory back PART 3
Doomsayer told Cliffjumper to wait while he walks over to get the Matrix of Conquest from the stone altar. Hivemus Prime, Hot Rod, Strongarm, Sideswipe, and Orion Eclipse watched through the crack from the other room as they could see that the Matrix of Conquest looked like the Matrix of Leadership, but different. "What is that thing?" Sideswipe asked with a quiet voice. "It looks like...The Dark Spark?" Hivemus Prime assumed. "It looks like the Matrix of Leadership, except it's evil-looking." Hot Rod added. "Shh! Keep your voices down." Orion told his friends. "Doomsayer could hear us." he said. Doomsayer stopped by the stone altar as the Matrix of Conquest was hovering above it in a purple force field. When Doomsayer carefully reached his hand servo over to grab it, the force field didn't harm him. It recognized the Blood of Unicron from within him and the force field died down as Doomsayer grabbed the Matrix of Conquest with both hand servos. Doomsayer looked at the evil relic

Beast Within
A wild savage animal lives inside us all Dark primordial instincts we only wished were gone Strange, unearthly presence devouring our souls The tortured, wounded beast haunts this mortal coil He’s in custody The strangler The dark serpent The creator and destroyer of dreams He’s locked away now you can’t hear him anymore But I can He’s in the attic drawing pictures of slaughtered animals Fumbling around with a box of matches trying to ignite all that has hidden him from you He needs flames to stay alive Everything is combustible with the right spark He’s watching you Waiting to be resurrected Trying to find the right opening Locked away in all our pleasantries Caged by comfort and conformity It waits within the shadows with relentless determination Stalking us and watching our every move He has a filthy little secrete he wants to share In between your thoughts He’s whispering it in your ear When the beast inside is locked quietly away inevitably it will explode in

This poem has captivating imagery, While reading, I could vividly picture the details you explained. I love how the beginning is filled with curiosity and innocence, while the last few line adds a harsher tone. This contrast made it very interesting and I started to think to myself, "What I do if I had those wings?" It really makes you stop and think.
The only issue I had was with how the poem was formatted, I felt the broken lines distracted me a bit while reading and broke some of the flow. But overall your rich imagery and contrast in mood is what makes this shine!
