The world has been warped.

Ghostly #sirens fill ruined cities with their songs, luring out survivors and slurping sanity out of their brains... #vss365 #horror #supernatural #microfiction #flashfiction

I definitely did then I didn't
then I wanted to then I didn't
exactly feel like it for about
1+1 months here recently
but now I do

believe in sirens.

I definitely hear something
in every exhaled, baddest one,
then idk if it's only my favorite
siren's song, or all
of their voices.

The Coven protects its own
as witches advocate
a strict non kissing
fraternization policy
with mortal men like me

#Sirens therefore blared
when are tongues entwined
on her front porch
as an automated
spell alarm activated
turning me into a eunuch

Ouch(sigh)

"Please."

"What?"

" #Sirens trigger his PTSD."

"Well, I'm a banshee, not a siren."

#Sirens used to lure sailors to their deaths. I hired them to lure hungry folks to my nautical-themed seafood restaurant. The sirens captivated the guests with their singing, and my restaurant was fully booked for months... #vss365 #flashfiction #microfiction #greekmythology #mythology #fantasy

I can lie
No wonder
I love to sleep
now that the dreams are nicer

I can if you knew
How’d you know tho?
Would a siren call me out
Would a sea siren tell the truth

Somehow i doubt seduction is deceptive
If it would no wonder i get wood
Lie’s a lifesaver
… jawbreaker

The #sirens meant only one thing - the killer bunnies breached the quarantine zone in Colorado. #vss365 #microfiction #flashfiction #bunnies #horror #humor

"Well, I'm off!" Riz said happily.
"Not that I'm complaining about a few hours peace, but where are you going?"
"Ta judge da #sirens singin contest!"
"The same sirens who wanted to skin you last time because you called them all tone deaf? Have fun!"

At the #edge of the universe I met my opposite number from next door. It was a surreal #experience. He was so happy. Both of us the greatest explorers of all. Then the #sirens began to sound. His ship had taken a bite out of mine. And I was next on my doppelganger's menu.

Tree frogs chirruped as cicadas’s legs rubbed their woeful song. A toad hopped into the pond, surprising the koi with a splash.

Weighted at the bottom, she heard none of the robust sounds of summer, not even the ear piercing #sirens from the police cars heading her way. #vss365

For #vss365 on the theme of #sirens. A sonnet from my forthcoming collection "But It's Always Been Like This" (JCStudio Press)

placid ponderings
drift in pools of reflection
sirens silent now

#vss365 #sirens #haiku #writing #poetry

The sirens still wait
for the lonely
on their odyssey
No lighthouse
No compass of restraint
A poison song
in their veins
Bodies numb
and then the sirens come
#vss365 #sirens #poetry

Drawing me in again
The #sirens call from the void,
But it must wait, my love.

#vss365

There were singing women who drew men to their demise: #sirens. Now, they blare a different tone through dense, damaged city streets. They call me, camera held, from blocks away. Miles through my scanner. I crawl through the night towards them, yearning for the perfect shot; it will end me.
#vss365

we've trembled enough
in dead silence

forced to drop anchor
in their #spineless sea

it's time we stand
with #valor

rise up & draw upon
our own certainty

refusing to be pawns
for a price

in our own damn
country

shout along with the #sirens
come October 17th

#vss365 #inkMine #poetry

Her coffee cools
as she watches the traffic
Nearby,
two people speak a language
she hasn’t heard in years
The #sirens rise
between the buildings
cutting through a sentence
she never hears finished
The bill arrives
There are streets
she knows well
that she still takes
to see where they lead
