Dreadful how mankind through time
subjugated personal freedom
"free at last, free at last", when?

#MastoPrompt
@stevencudahy

the hush of midnight
fearsome shadows uncoil from high ceilings
whispering secrets through trembling flames
that dance on the walls,
and this interrupted silence
the occasional thunders
the slivers of starlight
awaiting the dawn
beyond this abyss

©️ for much deliberation, May 2026

I warily eyed my companion's face. "That is a truly #fearsome smile."

"Thank you!" His voice quivered, and smoke leaked from his nostrils. "I hope the princess likes it."

Be the light
Be the bright horror
That makes darkness
Startle and shy away

be nimble and quick
fearsome follies await there
jump scare everywhere

The #MastoPrompt for Wednesday 13 May 2026 is:

#fearsome

The poem or story can include the prompt word or be about the prompt word.

@ me, if you like, or just include the #MastoPrompt tag (to allow people to follow or filter their feeds), or keep your work to yourself - all the options are good as long as you're writing.

If you're including an image please do include alt-text if you’re able to.
