I believe in Mister Bones, a mysterious entity rumored to steal your bones as you sleep, one by one, until he's replaced your entire skeleton with an unknown substance.

“Shoot Me In The Face on a Beautiful Day,” by @emmaemurray.bsky.social is gorgeously written and viscerally felt. A worthy addition to the caustic exquisite literature she produces.

for pride month READ my fucking poetry book i have confirmed reports that it meant something to trans individuals out there

#sludgepit NO TIGER is a collection of poetry from the underworld of Another place. it thrums with filthy anger:hot lyrics & prose poetry with ample destruction of body, sex after apocalypse, eradication of self w/n the hellscape of digitized warfare spectacle

flakwolves.su/NoTigerbyMIK...

digital collage from my book NO TIGER of multiple weapon schematics overlayed each other.

text from the story : the Flak Wolves perish on the first sunset
of winter

wolves in body armor howling at nothing. hungry hungry
hungry HUNGRY. eating and killing and shitting for
***********. siege upon their own ramparts. HUNGRY…..
being filled with sizzling holes in a prayless landscape of
hollow figures dotting the hills. a manic pack commander,
clung to by a glittery coat of maroon and a diesel-powered
automachine for her right leg, is feasting on her own
offspring. she is codenamed KARE. in their war, even the
puppies are soldiers. Kare reflects: the enemy uses weapons
of all ages. trained from birth for death. all is opponent.

they all wear dog tags, stamped in blood, with a single
designation: FACTION. flat trophies of silver, displaying
meaningless names devised for the smooth operation of
endless combat. her tags flaunt the name of her highly-
trained spec-ops barbarian tribe, FLAK WOLVES.
platoon of beasts that only live for a full kill feed!

the Flak Wolves are a squad of doomed canines. nameless
and absent meaning in their fangs, only the pack
commanders are given names beyond expressions of
disgust. the wolves have no kill count. each head they
tear is forgotten. only clung to their memories by
scents. killing and being killed. they’re life inverted.
only born on their own death. they’ll keep hating and
hating and hating and hating until the world is empty.

digital collage from NO TIGER of an exploded uzi diagram, with poetry on it that reads:

STEEL DETONATORS
CAST THE PROPHETS WAR ARTS PERFECTED

DISMEMBERMENT
EXHIBITION

A DESERT-SOAKED
WARRIOR BITES INTO
THE LIZARD'S TAIL
