"No," he said with a smile, "There is no miss understanding, my friend, I meant to pay you with exactly what I gave you."
"Bless your heart, milord," the old toothless woman said holding the gold pieces to her chest.
"Think nothing of it, thank you for the fruit," He moved about the crowd looking for something to do. He'd always felt restless at home and these "common folk" seemed to know how to cure it. Most of the time.
Always in a hurry, like bustling ants, they moved quickly buying and trading their daily goods like it was all that was important to them. The son of an English duke, Jareth hadn't had to worry much about this making it f

A memory of better times, a perfection that couldn't last,
I can reach out and touch her if I don't mind the pain,
But the cuts and scars means nothing's the same,
Still I cling like an addict addicted to the thought,
Of a woman who so long ago I should have forgot.
I offer myself a short distraction,
Some sort of break in the breaking reaction,
But when the music dies down and the streets get cold,
I run through conversations and things I was told,
Like that three word phrase that we used to use,
How quickly the feeling of love turned to "I hate you"s.

"Ah!" He hissed in pain as something gripped his shoulder and held him in place. For a moment he couldn't see as the dark had come upon him awfully fast, but when could see he was almost positive that he preferred not being able to. He was suspended in a tunnel of hands that seemed to belong as part of the wall itself. Then, Jareth realized why his wound hurt so bad, they where actually grabbing him.
"Come on! Come on!" A disembodied voice demanded. A cluster of hands formed into what could have been conceived as a face, "We haven't got all day."
"Haven't got all day for what?" Jareth asked.
"Which why do you want to go?" Another cluster a

Jareth stood in front of the destroyed building that was the ballroom, his shoulders heaving in anger. There was nothing in this world that would stop him from extracting his revenge on the Goblin King. The little demon had tricked him, giving his love back to him but under a thick spell. The castle hung in the distance like a horrible wart on the horizon. He'd freed his love, but he now had another reason for going to the Devil's house.
The power coursing through his veins seemed to bubble up in his hands as his anger grew. It was almost as if he where a rabid animal frothing at the mouth as his breath grew heavier and heavier. He held his

The goblin king circled around the corpse of Jareth's once beloved bride. She looked better now, the scar was almost completely healed. That poor fool thought he'd get her back though, no a woman this lovely even the Goblin King wanted her.
"What do you say, me dear?" He whispered in Sarah's ear, "Shall we give Jareth the slip? Escape back into your world? Would you become me bride instead of his?" With a snap of his fingers the small brown skinned monster forced magic through her veins.
Her eyes shot open and she screamed. Every inch of her body was in pain. Her blood felt like it was boiling out of every pore and her skin was crawling bac

I can see her in the corner of my eye, hiding in the darkness. Her mouth is slack, her face is white. Her hair is long and clinging to her face hiding it in the shadows. I'm not sure I should turn me head, in fear I may upset her. She is staring at me with hollow eyes that seem to have sunken in long, long ago.
I can smell her, the stentch of death, dirt, and decay clings to her. Its a foul smell but I dare not say anything. If her body smells this bad I can only fear her breath is worse, she's no teeth, or very little to speak of.
As she move's there she gives a small moan as if every limping step is painfull. Do I

Why I hate politicsToday I walked from my house a short mile to WalmartWhy I hate politics5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
On the way there I saw an entire family
A man, a wife, and 2 small children
Asking for any change could be spared
Both had lost their jobs last year
I gave them half the money in my pocket
I saw a man no older than 25
Sitting in front of the Inn 'n' Out
Whatever left over table scraps you can spare
My brother gave him half the change in his pocket.
I almost got back home to find 2 men
Begging for any change for a funeral for a young boy
We gave them what we had left.
Then I get home to hear
The economy is getting better
Now that we're over the fiscal cliff

Sarah woke up feeling strangely positive and ready to face the day. She sat on the bed rubbing her eyes and yawning, then turned off the alarm. The light coming from the window in front of the bed told her that it was sunny, and she smiled. I like sunny weekends.

Jareth was very pleased to have the chance to spend some time alone with Sarah, but he soon regretted leaving her apartment.

Far from over... chapter 3Six months passed before Sarah received anything more from the goblin king. In that time she had continued to talk to her friends from the labyrinth and though she still thought of him, more often than she would care to admit, she never spoke of the king to her friends. It was the day of her 16th birthday that she received her second missive from the king. Masquerading as a birthday card it camouflaged itself easily amongst the dozen or so others Sarah had received.

…And then there was the kissing booth.
What a way to start a story, right? I know, I know. It's just not fair, right? Except it's my party and my story, so I get to make up the rules.
But for this to make sense, I have to back it up a bit. Or a lot.
Yeah, we had seen each other off and on for years before anything really happened. Then there were a few "real" dates, and some not-quite-dates. A few same-place-at-the-same-times, and one very interesting afternoon walk in the park.
But you know all of those stories. The one I've managed to skip is possibly the most important: when all of it changed.

The creature had fallen apart once it'd hit the tree, its head, arms, and legs shot off in different directions. Jareth looked down at his hand, that had been much more powerful than he had meant for it to be.
"Hey!" one of the furry goblins shouted, "How'd you do that?"
"I don't know," Jareth answered honestly.
It would seem that these creatures were a lot less threatening now, at least in comparison to himself and the power that he had bottled in side. Although, if the Goblin King demanded he fight to free his love, this new power could prove useful. He turned to the others and lashed his hand out again. The magic within his hand snapped
