Midnight hour sounds harsh under faded light.
The moon, gentle and kind, provides comfort,
Hugging my sides upon learning my plight
While winds sing sweet hymns for their taut concert.
Abandoned skin craves the liquid's lost hope
As it escapes from its former prison
To join the rest's futile attempts to cope
For failed joy now beaten to submission.

To those broken exists not, it's absurd.
Since I was young, and now all grown, I've known
That still those most beloved can feel alone.

Would You Like to Dance?
"Would you like to dance?"
Falls out of his mouth, lips stretched large and wide
With his ivory teeth glinting in the dusty light.
His eyes caress and entrance, shining with a silent laugh,
As he watches and waits with an outstretched hand.
His skin, slick with sweat, glows with a radiant kind of joy.
How strange it is to see a rugged man as blissful as a boy.
"Would you like to dance?"
A question so gentle and curious - like a loaded gun.
Sweet, sweet innocence - he knows not of what he has done.
From all around, heavy, heated, judging eyes fall on you.,
Waiting with a bated breath for you to make a decisive move.

My Only Wish - Sonadow
The time of snow had finally arrived on South Island. A time when animals would use heavy coats to protect themselves from cold. But also a time to share happiness and to be in company of family or friends.
Christmas.
All animals would wait patiently for Christmas to reunite with their families, decorate their homes with mistletoe, or decorate tall trees with fruit. It was one of the most desired times in such island. You could always see gifts wrapped in beautiful colored paper and ribbons.
The famous anthros of the island weren’t an exception either. Miles Prower, better known as Tails the fox, had decided to organize a party on hi
