Ss4gogeta0 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) Felt like I should post some of my written work here... Its nothing special, just poems and such that I do for class or out of boredom... I will post both a picture of the original written piece aswell as typing it out... Night Creep by Jordan Harris (Me) My eyes glazed over bloodshot as I creep through the darkness. Hand encased around the cold steel tucked within my coat as thoughts of death permeate my brain. The soul of a warrior emerges from the depths of my heart when the calming darkness devours the sun. Born into the city of rival tribes, A product of the environment forced to struggle with death and despair while trying to survive in a dog eat dog world. An enemy in sight sitting in a '63 Impala caught slipping in the late night. Instinct raises my right arm, hand caressing the heavy metal frame. With a flick of a finger A deafening roar comes from my position. The battle cry of a warrior! A fireball spit from the Mac shatters the car glass and splits apart the rivals mask. My mind a blank slate, the world in a haze around me. My Internal clock in my body is ticking, the warrior inside of me will leave my body at first light as it always does. The transformation to be reversed leaving a broken child to fend for himself in a den of wolves. Home... My body in a trance climbs through the window into my room as my silhouette falls upon the bed exhausted. the memories of the battle dissipate as my mind slips out of consciousness. The warrior flys away as the light penetrates my window and shines upon my still frame knowing it will return when the pitch black calm embraces the world once more... "Encoded Silence" by Jordan Harris (Me) "Pass me the cuete", I heard a frantic voice say wildly next to me. "Andale holmes, hurry the f*ck up before that chavala gets away!" My hand grips the cold steel with it's hot and sweaty palm as I make a motion towards the young man sitting next to me. Beads of sweat are dipping down from my brow as I watch the heavy set young man grab the pistol and pull himself halfway out the window as he brandishes the evil tool towards the man smoking on the sidewalk. "Barrio East Side, PUTO!" is all I heard before a deafening crack dulled all my senses and rattled my whole frame. Shot after shot rang out, the fash of the muzzle illuminates the night, The howl of the pistol warns of death to anyone caught in the crossfire. Darkness... A loud ringing sound racks my brian as the man next to me gets back into the passenger seat and looks me dead in the face, his eyes hollow and empty. "Let's get the f*ck out of here before the cochino's come." The man falls back in relief, I look out the window where the man was standing and I see a large lump on the ground. A wave of thoughts crash into my conciousness as my stomach turns and I shift the gear out of park. as we drive off towards our barrio I give a hesitant chuckle and words leave my mouth without me realizing it "One less puto."

Ziggy455 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 It's hard to try and figure out what exactly this piece is about. From one point of view, I see the man as a vigilante who fights injustice, and by day returns to normal. Yet, I'm not so sure about things because it feels like some sort of cathartic transformation, maybe like a wolf, except there's imagery of a gang-attack? It's written in a very cool way, mixing past and present tense which normally hinders work. This feels like a very artistic, poetical gang-attack. I quite liked it. Do you have any more?

Do you have any more? yea, I have another one written but I need to type it up. glad you like it The focus on this one is about transformation from the mind of a teenager to the mind of a killer Edited November 24, 2014 by Ss4gogeta0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mokrie Dela Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hey man, Just a quick tip. You might find it benificial to add your shorts to your first post - having your first post act like a "contents" (check the links in my sig for a quick example). That way, if you keep adding (which i hope you do ) then it's easier to keep track of them. Link each new short's post to the first post, and it'll help, especially when/if you add more.
