Hello people of the fortress!

Firstly we apologise for being inactive for so long - real life as caught up with both Exnihilo-nihil and I and is leaving us with a little less time for features, interviews and journals :(

The results or the contest are coming soon, we promise, and with extra points since we feel so guilty for keeping the suspense for so long. Also, starting with this journal, I will be doing my best to feature talents we have discovered while meandering the dept of the deviant art literature community. Please go visit their pages, fav some work and watch them. Those are people worth reading we swear ;)

Please continue to submit your art, we take the time to look at them all. Thank you for keeping our little group alive. Without you, it wouldn't be possible.

May our fortress keep burning bright for a long time still.

Bonjour à tous !

Premièrement, nous voulons nous excuser du silence relatif de la forteresse au cours des derniers mois - la vraie vie nous chamboule un peu ce qui fait que Exnihilo-nihil et moi avons un peu moins de temps pour les interviews, journaux et features :(

Les résultats du concours s'en viennent bientôt, avec des points en plus, puisque nous nous sentons très coupables de vous faire attendre si longtemps :#1:  Au cours des prochaines semaines et mois, je ferai de mon mieux pour faire des journaux réguliers ainsi que des features de talents que nous avons découverts au cours de nos promenades au sein de la communauté littéraire de dA. Prenez le temps de les lire, de les mettre en favoris et sur votre liste de "watch", ils en valent la peine, on vous le promet ;)

Surtout, continuez de nous soumettre vos œuvres, nous prenons le temps de les regarder; sans vous, la forteresse ne serait pas. Merci de votre participation !

Que notre forteresse ne cesse de brûler encore longtemps.

CottonI spent days trying to write
the perfect letter for you.
I wrote and scratched out
words. I crumpled paper
until my floor started to think
it was a cotton field,
and I thought of inviting you
to come pick through it,
to see if you could find
the softness I was trying
to tell you about
but I was too afraid
your fingers would wear raw
on the bolls, that you would grow
tired of stooping
to pick up the things I'd grown
in my head
so I put an empty envelope
in your mailbox, and wrote
     Love me, please,
on the outside,
instead.
Drink The SeaTonight, after your medicines
capsize you, after you sink
into the churning depths of sleep,
I am going to walk down
to the shore of the sea,
down past the white sand dunes,
down past sandspur and panic
grass, down to the dark wet.
Whatever chemical dreams
you dream, they will comfort you
long enough for me to fall
on my knees, put my head
against the soaking sand
and crash headlong into the surf.
I'm going to open my mouth
as wide as it will go,
and let the ocean rush in.
I'll drink deep, swallow gallons
and gallons of sea and shells
and galleons rotting under the waves.
All the humpbacked whales
and shark-stuck suckerfish
and the red seahorses, too.
I'll swallow the Great Barrier Reef
and the Strait of Gibraltar
and every single one
of Sinbad's Seven Seas,
just to put out the fire
that scorches my brain
everytime I think of you sinking.
I'll drink the sea dry
to keep you afloat.

doulx amour*I have been
simple syrup,
a gentle narcotic,
heroine
in a dark room anointed
with bacterial wisdom
(ironic
that he just played
at being king,
a supine α -)
and I was always
a shill
for cures:
nirvāna
and leeches,
and chic osteosutures-
frantically
medicating, deliberating
between dukkha
and rebirth,
la mort je désire,
o doulx amour.

Coucou, Sophie et Frantz :)
AU fait j'ai parlé avec quelqu'un qui avait participé au concours Micro/MEGA, les résultats ont été publiés ou j'ai loupé quelque chose ? ^^;
