🖤 Nightmare Poetry — Featured Poets

Our brand new Nightmare Poetry section in Dark Descent has officially begun, and this month’s featured poets were Tina and JB.

Both delivered beautifully unsettling pieces that linger long after the final line. Thank you both for sharing your work with the Dark Descent community.

Now… it’s time to open the door again.

Take Over

Clunky robotic arms reaching,

Grabbing what can’t hide,

Slicing and ending,

The life that once was.

What began in innovation,

Gave way to warnings.

Robots blossomed,

Decimation complete.

Call out...

I want to start a new poetry section in our monthly Dark Descent Mag. If you don't mind sharing a few for publication would be grand :) (Will probably replace the art section).

Many Thanks

Kerry

Mislim da je kod online igara casoola.hr najvažniji balans. Igre mogu biti odličan način opuštanja, ali samo ako se igra umjereno. Ja si obično postavim neko nepisano pravilo – prvo završim obaveze, a tek onda odigram nekoliko rundi neke igre. Tako gaming ostaje nagrada ili način opuštanja, a ne nešto što mi oduzima previše vremena. Kad se drži takav pristup, igranje ostaje zabavno i pozitivno iskustvo. Uostalom, svaka aktivnost je dobra dok je u ravnoteži s ostalim dijelovima života.

🩸 Horror Haiku Challenge

For this challenge, write one or more horror haiku set in a familiar place after it has emptied.

Let the poem carry a feeling of unease, intrusion, or quiet wrongness, and a sense that something has been left behind — or is waiting.

Guidelines:

Traditional haiku form (5–7–5 syllables)
Post as many haiku as you like
Suggestion over explanation — keep it subtle

From the void screaming

Comes the dread creeping chaos of

Writing Challenge: A Voice Certain of Its Innocence

Let your narrator speak with total confidence.

Of course they were justified. Anyone would have done the same.

No confessions.

No guilt.

No apologies.

The real terror slips in through the logic—the calm, convincing way they explain themselves.

I recently came across a helpful discussion about finding a reliable Home Care Agency Philadelphia, and I wanted to share my experience. After researching several options, I found this local provider in Philly to be a strong choice. Their services seem professional, and they focus on compassionate, personalized care, which is very important for families. The website is clear and informative, making it easy to understand what they offer. From what I’ve seen and read, they appear trustworthy and committed to quality support. Definitely worth considering if you’re looking for dependable home care services in the Philadelphia area.
