The bell above the door tinkled as he opened it. The emporium was as vast as it was unusual. It blossomed out into a five pronged star shape with small cubicles at its points. A susurruss drew him to one of the specialized spaces. Entranced, he walked in & became a part of the susurruss. #vss365

Bob and Nora strolled through the bustling market. "Every #emporium has so many interesting things to look at," Bob said, holding an antique clock. It made him think of his father who sadly passed away. He had an extensive collection of old photographs and clocks. #vss365

It was a station known only as The #Emporium. A place where merchants from around the five systems could gather and trade goods they could find rarely anywhere else, both legal and illicit. Dylan traded here, sometimes, but today, he had other bargains to find. Star charts for a big job. #vss365

At the football game, Bob noticed Nora was an #outlier among the crowd with her handmade banner with red letters. She wished it would attract the camera's focus, allowing them to be featured on the TV broadcast. Bob would be so excited if his coworkers saw him. #vss365

For the past 6 mos, the inhabitants of Earth had observed the sun transition from yellow to a deep hue of red. That red was now becoming black.The clouds above began to shape into a circle & ascend higher in the sky. Their eyes traced the contours of the round clouds. A panic fell upon them. #vss365

Bob and Nora sat on the sofa during a commercial break on TV. Bob traced the #contours of Nora's face with his hand. "Every line is beautiful," he said, regretting his choice of words instantly. Nora wanted to roll her eyes, but the sincerity in his eyes stopped her. #vss365

Rory followed the #contour of the mountain, circling above the horde of goblins that seemed to mass at the bottom. He tried to avoid them as best he could because these goblins weren’t bothering anyone, they were just in the way. A secret temple lay within their lands, ready to plunder. #vss365

This was a new type of ship, one Dylan had never seen before and he had fallen in love with it. It was no Magpie, but then, nothing was. But this ship was beautiful. Every sleek line, every #contour designed to evoke a technological lust for it. It probably flew like a pig, though. #vss365

She was gentle, soft even, but the #contours of her body disguised jagged edges within; damage created by years of harshness; the only world she had known. The padding on her bones a subconscious protection that now she finally was starting to feel safe she realised she wanted to release. #vss365

That #contour is unmistakable, sleek, powerful, terrifying. If she sees you first, which is always the case, this pint-sized demon will nuzzle her cold wet nose against your neck. Beware. #vss365

you pull the chain & collapse. the dark room is interrupted by the overhead gently swinging. you compose your thoughts in ink so thick it casts a walking shadow over each kerning. the letters #contour into words, the words into substance; & you lose your mind on a page no one will ever read #vss365

As we age the #contours of our bodies change. I’m reminded of the Riddle of the Sphinx: What creature walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening? It’s man: baby crawling, adult, old age. I’m now in the evening phase because I walk with a cane. #vss365

I speak in shapes A geometry of words, Yet your #contours I can’t define. An image in my mind That I can’t describe, You are the essence of a being Undefined by rules. You are the shape I live by You are the thing I can’t describe. #vss365 #prompt #writing #writingcommunity #poem #writer #amwriting

His last meal had been eaten, or at least partially. His appetite for his bacon cheeseburger & fries had diminished as the ticking clock counted down to the "event". He sat on the edge of the bed anxiously waiting during the interim of the prayer by the pastor & his walk to the chair. #vss365

Bob was already a bit late for work. He quickly ate a bowl of cereal and had to skip reading the newspaper. "I expected this #interim before I head out to be a bit more peaceful," he mumbled. Nora got Bob his work boots and told him that the clock was ticking. #vss365

Much had happened in the #interim since Dylan had last visited the colony and it seemed things had not gone well for the people scraping a meagre living on the desolate planet. Raiders. They struck with irregular impunity and the colonists had little defence against them. But Dylan did. #vss365

We upload our consciousness when we are dying. As our clones reach maturity, the consciousness is downloaded and we live on, our greatest achievement: immortality. The Box, the #interim mind that manages the transfer, has now collected enough fragments that it believes it, too, has a soul. #vss365

Our #interim home was warm & dry.The tempest outside was muted & distant. "Let's form a plan,"Apep said."What do we need to gather?" "Integrated circuits, diodes, transistors, transformers & Plutonium-238,"I said. "Where in Bermuda can we find Plutonium?"Kevin thought. #vss365

The realization came to him on his 49th birthday. All his life, he had aspired to be a part of the cool crowd, to be popular & loved. It seemed that while he had been close to the inner circle, he was really just past the fringe of acceptance. The revelation was that it had been his choice. #vss365

Courageous as she was with trimming small pieces of her hair, Nora's attempt at cutting her #fringe this time led to a choppy, jagged result. "Are you going for an abstract look?" Bob casually commented as he saw her walk by. #vss365

Out here, at the very #fringe of the system, things could get weird. Strange sightings. No chance of rescue. N9 planets within sight. Only the endless, deep, impenetrable black of space and the almost empty void beyond. Here, even TechDrones rarely came. A perfect place for secret meetings. #vss365

On the #fringe, the overhanging edge, the hidden behind some long ago pledge, out beyond, far beyond, the middle, from where you call my name, but I'm too busy clinging to be waving, calling, asking for saving, down below, up above, time is stretching, falling, flying away from us. #vss365

Why seek closure, darling? Let us remain an open song That stirs on morning breeze And glints on moon’s playful brow On the #fringe of dream and waking. Let us remain a wayward wish That murmurs at eventide And hides in scent of summer rain—warm and free. #vss365 #poem #poetry 📷 Pixabay

'OMG, Gabe!' Snort-laugh. 'That's a... bold choice. I mean, mullets are dead, but you carry it off... sort of. Umm... is the left hand side meant to be longer than the right? And as for that #fringe...' 'Oh, shut up, Pixie. I didn't have a choice. My mother cut it.' #vss365
