  • JUST ONE NIGHT

    by KYLA

    Let me have just one chance, I promise I won’t rob thee.
    With your eyes so bright and blue like the open sea.
    Let me have just one chance, I promise I won’t lie.
    In fact if I lift you off your feet you will surely fly.
    Let me have just one chance, I promise you will see
    That if you let me have this night you’ll fall in love with me.

  • THE WOLF

    by ERIC

    Demented creature, mind marks it in-depth with death. The innocent face engulfed in the canary eyes that leave an imprint in the darkness. Silence, then a barrage of growls preceding the departure of the departed. A forest radiating scarlet. A flash, then farewell pawprints in vision before being swept from the scene that never had dialogue, but demonstrated the circle of life. Violence, this hunter thought, can’t be compared to the shiniest trident. A thirst for hunger never quenched in the river’s silence. Tired of chasing meals, but finally trapped in tactics. An urge to disgorge prey, then emerge from a massacre of satisfaction.

  • EXCLUSIVE INK II

    by KIYLA

    It’s amazing how we started.
    Some were friends, others associates.
    College tutors starting something unique.
    I’m not alone. No seriously, I’m not!
    There are two other Kiylas.
    Nobody here who doesn’t like to write.
    Our superheroes finally let us free.
    It’s kind of crazy, right?
    No, it’s perfect. Unique.
    We are the voices of Exclusive Ink.

  • EXCLUSIVE INK I

    by MARCHE

    Exclusive Ink, we’re talented and blessed.
    Exclusive Ink, we’re prepared for any test from study in practice.
    I wondered, “Are we prepared?” ’cause when we began mouths stopped and eyes stared.
    I’m not being conceded, but I think we’re there.
    I believe God prepared the stairs for us to climb to sucess.
    So now we can take a deep breath.
    Exclusive Ink, we got brains, style, the moves, and the smile.
    We are the talk around town.


  • THE MOUSE

    by DAEZY

    “EEEEEEEEEKKK!”
    Mom shrieks.
    She leaps through the air,
    Ten feet back.
    Heart attack.
    “MOUSE! THERE’S A MOUSE IN MY HOUSE!”

    Little feet skitter across the floor.
    Beady eyes look,
    Searching for something more.
    Harmless, it looks.
    Well, at least to me.

    Little mouse,
    Caged in the wall.
    Why won’t you set yourself free?
    The air in here is suffocating.
    The people are lazy and boring.

    Yet when you come out,
    Your eyes always
    Search, search, search
    What are you looking for,
    Little mouse?

    Why search my humble home,
    Where the air is dry as a bone,
    Where my mom hides lurking in the shadows,
    Where my siblings hide poison beneath the sink?

    Are you lonely, little mouse?
    Are you scouting for a humble house,
    A place to call home,
    Where you no longer feel alone?
    Why not out in the world, little mouse?

    I feel so trapped in this house.
    Walls, walls
    Closing in.
    Sometimes I feel like giving in
    To the madness of being caged.

    Little mouse, between my mittens,
    Escape!
    Be fr–
    Oh no,
    You were just eaten by a kitten.
