Amboseli National Park – Mount Kilimanjaro’s Gift
Of the four Kenyan national parks I visited in May 2022 Amboseli was the national park I was looking forward to most. That is because I backed out of an eight-day trek to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro at the last minute after coming down with a mild case of Covid in April. Covid interrupted…

Poem by Gabriela Marie Milton – Literary Revelations: Hidden in Childhood – Call for Submission
Poem by Gabriela Marie Milton I call into being the taste of that which is hidden below the existence. The breath of a salty ocean on my skin. Everything is here between primal and the infinity of possibilities: the epistemes of love; the essence of beauty; the whispers of a language you cannot understand. You…

Hidden Intentions
I wrapped the wool over my eyes,afraid to see you had two sides.Showed loyalty to tame my fears,cried sensitive crocodile tears. One part of you admired me,the other part, a silent beethat stings without a buzz or hiss,portraying love, poisonous kiss. Presenting trust, so I could share,my hardest truths and dark despairA fake friendship, one…

Japan’s Underwater Aircraft Carrier / part-one
I-400 Series Super-submarine Lieutenant Commander Stephen L. Johnson had a problem on his hands; a very large problem.

World War II in the Pacific had just ended,…

Nightmare
On my way to a fun night,car breaks down, an unknown site,glimpse up at the dim moonlight,heartbeat marches to pure fright. Blood pressure does jumping jacks,views that surround are pitch black,equilibrium, out of wack,hear my own inner voice crack. Goosebumps come out for a peek,cold sweat does not drip, it leaks,both knees buckle, head feels…

Some Sports from Past Times
With working hours that traditionally aligned to the hours of daylight, the time available for pastimes and sports was, at best, limited to the Breton peasants of days gone by. This narrow opportunity was limited further by the often isolated nature of rural dwellings and the poor transport infrastructure that connected communities. It is therefore…

Whole Again
Every night she is staring at the very same mirror, smeared with strangers staring back. She can’t find nor recognize herself anymore, and so one night, she stops looking. Every night her soul is floating in the space between her face and this estranged reflection. She hears the walls murmuring, admiring the touch of her…

When I Write
The other day a friend was telling me how his dad, who was a professor in the business school at the University of Washington, wrote books. He’d shut himself in his home office and for two months would just sit there with a note pad nearby. Sometimes he’d watch a game or organize stacks of…
