His pale face was etched in red streaks. He too had barely touched his meal. Light from the window illuminated the dust floating in the...

Home sweet home! Sorry about the tape gag, it was necessary don't you agree? Do you know that wikipedia has a page on gags?

The throbbing in my head is the first thing I notice; it's probably what woke me in the first place. My brows furrow at the light behind my eyelids. Is this a hangover?

[WP] A day where God does not receive any prayers
A glorious new day has dawned onto Heaven. But I can't shake the feeling that something is…different. The typical buzz of our heavenly work is not here with us. As I stroll down the avenue to work, I see no one around. From down the avenue comes Maneciel, a fellow Messenger. "Hello, Maneciel! Blessèd morning." He lo...

[WP] A day where God does not receive any prayers
There was a gentle rapt-tap-tap on a vast, sprawling oaken door. "Come in," bore a voice of resounding clarity. Through the crack filtered a tiny man struggling to pull his wings through the doorway. As a few feathers fluttered down into a plume of clouds drifting across the floor, the tiny man adjusted his tie, strai...

"Okay mate. Alright - yes don't worry about it. Uhuh, uhuh... Right. Look, I best be off, got the Ps to deal with. Alright Satan, take care now." God put down the phone and glided slowly into to the sorting office. *Those fucking seraphim kids!* He chuckled as he was greeted by an empty room, *Always hiding my work s...

[WP] A day where God does not receive any prayers
The people of Earth prayed a billion prayers to the Heavens above. "Protect my brother tonight." "Guide my dying mother into your kingdom" "Help me find a job." "Help me find food." "Help me make money." "Help me get revenge on my boss." "Hurt her new lover!" "Guide my bullet." "Kill my enemy!" "Ravage their...

[WP] A day where God does not receive any prayers
It was time to try again. The last time had been a disaster, just like the one before that, and the one before that. Stretching all the way back. It was time to push the bird out of the nest again. The last time had been bad. A global financial crisis. Billions of lives and futures stunted, crippled or destroyed ...

The Gods had fought and he had always won. He had succumbed to many temptations, had his share of heartbreaks, but in the mist of all the turmoils, he was still the ruler of Olympus. But time had passed. New Gods came to power, attracting new followers. Little by little the old Gods started to fade until one by one th...

I like earth and humans. They are such contradicting creatures - humble and boastful, hateful and lovable. I have to say they are entertaining. Ever since the beginning of time, they have been creating stories to amuse themselves. Before they could even speak, they thought and dreamt and lied. Now, it is the height o...

“Bless this food, this household, these wonderful children of ours. We thank you for the life you give us, keeping us safe every day. Amen.” Father always said prayers. “Thank you for the wonderful prayer today,” a Seraphim complimented. Thanks, the word of the day. “Pass the potato’s,” was also a fan favorite. Gabriel...

[WP] Dropping your friend off at the airport makes you realize something.
She had this short brown hair that liked to stick up at the very nape of her neck. It was like she had been wearing a hat all day, and had just taken it off, all the time. When I would say something stupid, her mouth would twitch at the left side. I swear she has permanent lines now. Her favorite word was "presbyterian...

[WP] Dropping your friend off at the airport makes you realize something.
You were always the main man, the show-off, the joker. "Get a grip!" you'd say, "man up!" Do you remember that night we sat looking up at the stars? As the night passed by and the sun rose up along the dusty and barren horizon, it occurred to me I had never spoken about my life and my father with anyone before, let al...

[WP] Dropping your friend off at the airport makes you realize something.
He boarded the pathetically small aircraft. The smell of burnt rubber ebbed in through the open windows, making me gag. I've always had a weak stomach, but being mainland for so many months had taken its toll. There was little that could be done at this point. He was already gone. When I had spent mornings retching...

[WP] Dropping your friend off at the airport makes you realize something.
Weaving in and out of the minivans, pickups, and priuses watching for red and blue up ahead required all of his attention. He only nodded occasionally, politely, while she continued her long train of thought that covered such diverse topics as how mad she was at that slut to how much she would miss her shower. She smil...

The neon sign eerily flickered on and off over the small cafe. The town was an empty, desolate place. The cars parked along the street had their doors left wide open. Stranger still was the small bag food left rotting on the nearby park bench. The town was deathly quite, the only sound being the chilly breeze that whis...

Doors to small shops were left flung open by their former occupants and crows sung in the air as they crossed above the main thoroughfare. Streetlamps flickered and newspapers were blown across the street as Archer and Lana walked. Lana looked at the scene. "I think we're lost." "We're not lost, we're just taking a li...
