Jeff Buckley’s angelic ghost, rusting in circles, and hellfire waiting.
Our eleventh show on Prose. Radio was spawned by the music of Buckley, but, it was led on from TheWolfeDen's Challenge, then into a touch of hellfire and something waiting to, well, shine, in his own way...
Hear the two pieces here.

Let's get this week to the weekend, where a stiff drink awaits...
And.
As always...
Thank you for being here.

Metallica’s poetry, Kafka’s floating cage, bathed in sunlight, and amputational karma.
In our tenth broadcast on Prose. Radio, we dive into forms colliding to form a formidable form from the form formidable first. Thank the coffee for that one. But, on the show, Last leads first, and then a doctor of an exact mark of punctuation closes the broadcast with a piece leaving you lighter, yet heavier. You'll have to hear it.
Always loved sound influencing the page, or maybe just moving it along differently.
Here's the link to the show, and we'll leave the pieces and writers in the comments.

As always.

Mirror
Spiral downward into my world beneath the surface
Dig deeper and you’ll see my soul
Barren and old
Weary and cold
And already sold
So you see, I only care about the money
And not the world in which my greed is causing suffering
Of the Earth
And it’s people.
And I’ll be sent into a downward spiral if you try to tell me we are equal.
It would be unwise
My mind is closed and so are my eyes.

Winner of I rear-ended His car challenge
Wow, contributors were among some of my favorite writers and some I'm unfamiliar with, who are on their way to get on that list!
The prompt was addressed SO CREATIVELY by everyone. Thanks to @Huckleberry_Hoo, @dctezcan, @tolstyka, @svsrikanth, @TheJovialWriter, @Shallowgenepool, @writer_a_nel, @aflalo22, @yousufrizvi4, @kateresa, @Furaha, and @RamonElCamino.
Tough call. These covered probably every snarky angle of interacting with UNOHOO. The one that I liked the best (but barely above each and every unique and clever one) was @7v7's Now Here's a Sucker.
"You have home insurance, too?"
"Yes. It's required." I don't know why I answered.
"And life insurance?"
"--uh that's optional."
"Our agent will be calling."
"I'm sorry--wha?!"
Subtle but hilarious. Thanks to all. Now I have to figure out how to select the winner and mark it officially.
A quick note to my lovely friends
Hello, fellow gifted writers!
I would like to let everyone know that my real name is Mariah. I had been using “Mazzy” as my username for quite some time, but no longer. It has lost a great deal of meaning over the years and as a result, it no longer suits me.
So, if you see me around, please know that it's still me <3
Affectionately,
Mariah,
the writer formerly known as Mazzy :)
