What-Knot There is a knot made of conflict, a ball twisted with emotions, threads bound together, as if tricked by their struggling, wrangling motions.
I’ve tried to untangle this knot, to loosen and unwind its twine, but it does not relax as ought— it is a knot, this heart of mine.
The Tower The limestone-toothed tower looms tall, its shadow stretching over all, reflected in the crystal loch, built to endure, from block to block, a famed fortress of those before who reigned in bygone times of yore, yet, the kings have all gone to dust and the tower stands, as it must not because dead kings willed it so, but because Nature did bestow great power to her ancient stones— power to outlast kingly bones.
Stephen Marshall. Writer, illustrator, layabout. Find him on Amazon, maybe. He has paperback and kindle books listed there. He also writes Supernatural Romance under the name S.C. Foster (because his fiancee pushed him to do so). He seems to have a knack for the Romance genre, much to his chagrin. Having pursued Children's literature he is particularly proud of his Children's novel series "Lost And Found", which begins with "Chloe Among The Clover", continues recently with "Stormy Within The Strawberry Patch" and may, in some future potentiality, culminate with "Candice Through The Picket Fence". These are novels for children (including his insistent nephew), but they are also written for adults who are children at heart. His short story collection, "The Eldritch Diaries", centers primarily upon Cosmic Horror and Body Horror, combining Lovecraft's mythos with the motifs of Sigmund Freud. His largest poetry collection, "Broken Crown Kings", contains over two hundred poems and two short novellas concerning the fleeting nature of the world and Man's place within it. Recently he has published a smaller book of poetry concerning Kentucky, Moonshine, and Ghosts called "Moonshine And Spirit Chasers". A much larger collection, entitled '"Nevermore" 99 Rhymes For $0.99' is also available. For those seeking supernatural and folklore, his collection "Weeping Cherry" is available also.
