Sometimes I run to dreams to awaken my reality.
Trying hard to escape actuality.
'Cause when I look around all I see is tragedy.
I try to manifest a world that smiles back at me.
Free of pain, free of hatred, free of apathy.
A place where the only thing holding us down gravity.
Where being happy is our version of living lavishly.
Where anything that ain't love is blasphemy.
Seems to be the only state of mind that relaxes me.

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge — well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heledd’s dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morgan’s writing is atmospheric and exciting.
