Hello everyone!

It's time for another feature! This time the feature is going to be around literature! You can submit any of your literature works as long as they follow the rules below. This is only for under-appreciated pieces of art, so the piece must have smaller amount of views, +favs, and comments.

The deadline is Friday November 16th

Must relate to the theme, and be "under-appreciated"

Show your BEST works. No unfinished pieces or "quickies"

Only three thumbnails max
I stop taking deviations on Nov 16th. Feature will be put up that weekend and all who will be featured will be notified. I will only be featuring the best works, so make sure you give me your best!

Please check out the last feature here and give those artists your love! [link]

Also, I'm taking donations in order to help give back to the community and support more artists. Any donations are welcome and I always give a llama to those who donate, along with checking out their galleries and handing out possible +favs, +watches, comments, etc. Any support is greatly appropriated!

You can no longer comment on this thread as it was closed due to no activity for a month.

glowafteronce there was a girl
who would eat the sun
on a frozen beach
i'd watch carefully

never told me why
cause i never asked

sunrise and sunset
she would stare and stare
grow she would nourished
by cosmic cycles

she then glanced at me
her secret smile

when she grew too much
and flew into space
one with the fire
at home, burning core

leaving me behind
a small speck of sand
covered by silent snow
drowned by the still sea

on a clod of dirt
wandering the void

staring, staring at the stars

livedshortrefresh, virgins bloom
unveiled electric flower
rain-soaked naked mirth

roll in wild grass
humid loins and sweaty souls
intertwined limbs melt

in a leaf strewn breeze
scarecrows sway with still shadows
rusty mouth-to-mouth

dying with black chills
snowpeople hearts suffocate
caged in icy glares

LongingThe fires for you, raging in my brain

Unceasingly buring
The tiny plastic gears of my perception.

UntitledCigarette in hand, scotch on the rocks in the other.

Ceramic knife on the countertop. Lemons freshly cut, squeezed over the tracklines, rabbitholes in his right arm.

Shattered bottle in the corner. Remains of a rag, burning sensations licking at the doily, stinging on his injection sites.

A bead of sweat, rolling down his brow, his neck, his chest. He takes a drag. Another bead. He reaches behind him, a familiar wooden vestigial tail, finished and framed around steel.

He puts the gun in his mouth.

Her ocean blue, the submerged star, and 5 AM.Swimming to the bottom of an infinitesimal ocean of blue and green and white and light, three, maybe four drain spouts (positioned at regular metered intervals). 3, then 4, to 5 in the morning. Swimming with the one I love.

Swimming to the bottom of an infinite ocean of blue. The sun's subtle caress playfully peeking over the treetops high, over the picket fence higher. A curious light shines bright at the bottom, the loving eye of the bed, the urchin, the abyssmal seabed. I dip my head beneath the surface and proceed closer. I dip my head beneath and slowly float towards the star.

Swimming to the bottom of her ocean of blue. Four walls, on

THINGS MY WIFE SAYS THAT STICK WITH ME.You may be wondering what the socks are for in my artwork. Well, in the movie, my wife tells me that she has packed 'some black socks' for me in my bag as I am about to go hunt the shark. The thing is, I do not like black socks. Do you think she was trying to tell me something? The whole trip on that boat, I couldn't get those black socks out of my head. People were dying and all I could think about were those black socks.
