Glasgow Winter

Leaking stanks drench the streets, the wind howls, hardly hearing the city sounds. people covered from head to toe, hardly seeing faces and nobody noticing anyone any where.

Whilst the people, the cold, the young, the old, the smart and the dumb stay in the dark to wait untill the summer months.

A power struggle. The Story of St-Dan. By Daniel McCourt

Control of the airports was surrendered to the union. The trains had been stopped boarded and used for shelter by those travelling around the land to find food and energy . The citizens’ fought  themselves. The big Business’s had all fallen and money has became useless.   No one was getting out of Britain. This was it, the beginning of the end. The sun didn't seem to shine so bright but burn with a dark yellow creating day glow that seemed only fitting for the end of days.

The union believed in old time laws such as capital punishment for even the smallest crimes. People in the Old country of Scotland now known simply as The North started to...

My spiritual confession

My father was never in my life, not that I can remember.

One cold and haunting night something very tragic happened. John fell in the park from a high jungle gym type attraction that climbed to the sky. He seemed okay and the night went on to John and his mum gong to the chippy (chip shop). Whilst waiting on his food he slipped on a wet floor and banged his head for a second time in 2 hours.

I was Living in this house with 4 or five others and i was a considerable bit older than i am now. I explored some of the house and found an old built in Hallway through a set of double doors resembling that of an old hospital . The hallway was full of old musical instruments, a guitar that was broken a piece from a drum kit. I found this rather odd as i rummaged more through the unexpected find. It was quite dark in the Hallway and the atmosphere was getting intense and just for a moment i saw what looked like Shining green light appear at the bottom almost like eyes, Then a force of some kind stooped me from getting back out the hallway it was almost like the floor turned to ice and i couldn't move forward , sliding in panic ...
