➨ poem ;;
new stars gather around their feet
with starlit eyes and stride so fleet
in this, the world is emerald cast,
but beauty's never made to last
the voices told the stars to wait
yet they had long decided fate
this being would have immense power
but only used in final hour
slowly the sun constricts their breath
the moon won't come and they near death
though they struggle to find purpose
all they find is worthlessness
the sun rose without a warning
turned green to gold and night to morning
and as they thought it all will end
they rose up and began again
i cannot help what my hands do
i'm sorry if i strangle you
i am a monster, you will learn
and you had better be concerned
like the moon my eyes are thieves
their emerald hue was never green
i never learned to make my own light
so i'm a lover of the night
they will touch their paw to their cheek
refusing to admit they're weak
it comes away spotted with blood
their actions cannot be undone
they croon softly to the new moon
eyes pale like the first storm of june
they have ruined all that they loved
seeking comfort in night above
some of them fades into shadow
other pieces are set aglow
they are a patchwork piece of art
and their pelt reflects their heart
they are a shadow, nothing more
but like one that's been seen before
and sometimes when the sky is grey
all that matters fades away
a mad king on a lonesome throne
convinced that they are not alone
their eyes stare though they do not see
each friend taken for enemy
their eyes burn like pine tree fires
but their soul is trapped in mire
their eyes are hollow shells of grass
nothing beautiful was ever made to last.

➨ short story;;
a single dewdrop falls from a leaf. it hangs, suspended, globular surface altered from watery transparency to opalescent emerald by the green hues. another pair of emeraldine spheres watches this event transpire, closely, as if attempting to learn how to fall from this lone drop of water. though the sky is still dark, hours yet from dawn, this is alright; this is when this being is active most. their coat is a miscellany of colors, a chestnut tan to pale cream to deep black. one color fades into the background of the night, one stands out in the silver light of the moon, and the last stands alone, belonging to neither, a strange gray-hued spectre of the darkest hours. this being is not of day nor night, of black nor white, of up nor down. they are the in between, the eternal limbo, the brink that spans life and death. they are love and hate, peace and war.
but right now, they are just two eyes watching a dewdrop fall.
