Once desired, now the body wallows into this velvety throw
A ballet dancer would go from pirouette to penché without any executive command
The surroundings elevate their depths exponentially; does climbing the wooden balustrade with all fours makes me Tarzan?
The need to touch every other weave is irreversible;
A relentless train in the background dwindles your coherent thoughts
Now is the only principle that counts; To hell with the chores of this life form
Extremities of the physical light up at the slightest touch
Blankly staring at each other, wondering the 'whys' and 'hows' of life, we still tread along the fabrics of society
Hopping from pebblestones to pebblestones to find a stimulation that is on the cusp of no return,
The ridiculous sagacity unrolls and then you find yourself at the doorstep of self-depreciation...
But on another day, the sun smiles at you and you hug it in return by embracing the greener grass that is the rickety feeling is as bad as a nipple piercing
About the Creator
Kali
Writing has been an inherent part of me: how I celebrate myself, how I lash out my anger, how I feel sensual, how I check my ego, how I evoke the darkest zest, how I heal, and how I connect to Divine Source.

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.
