Challenge
Rune Bear (upcoming digital literary magazine) is looking for stories about... Rune Bear.
What the hades is a rune bear anyway? All we know is that they're blue, covered in glowing runes, and often found in wintry woods. But other than that, they're a complete mystery. We're looking for petite prose and poetry about these wondrously weird creatures.
Rune Bear
Winter’s vapored breathe.
Songs and stories descend.
Tales spun in fires soft glow.
Of Rune Bear’s end.
Young eyes wide.
Elder mouths smile.
Ghostly shadows dance.
Unwillingly beguiled.
A warrior of great extent.
Bearing, helm of awe.
Sought Rune Bear out.
Envisaging its fall.
Entwinned in battle.
Under slivered moon.
Rune Bear fell.
Yielding to gaping wound.
Spoils towards aggrieved victor.
Glowing Runes pelt.
Ethereal blue light.
Warrior knelt.
Spirit blood abandon.
Spirit soul elevated.
Rune Bear exists.
Ubiquitous, unabated.
