Chapter
Ballad: Brave Alum Bey
Brave Alum Bey stands as a cheerful yet curious figure, best remembered for his fearless spirit and endearing eccentricities. Along the peaceful riverbanks of Stamboul, he lived a life as gentle as the flowers he picked for Backsheesh, the lovely daughter of Rahat Lakoum. Their romance blossomed quietly, nurtured by daily gifts and mutual fondness, strengthened by the simplicity of shared rituals. While Backsheesh mastered culinary wonders, Alum Bey prepared for life’s unpredictable tides. When duty…-

VERSE: Optimus
Optimus opens with a caution that speaks directly to the well-meaning heart—the kind of person stirred by the sight of undone work, by silence when action is needed, and by the weight of tasks that seem to have been abandoned. A voice, noble in tone but dangerous in intent, whispers that it is right to step in and take on what others have left behind. It presents itself as a call to heroism, dressed in selflessness, yet it carries within it the seed of imbalance. The poem reveals this temptation as…-

Spring Day
In this chapter titled Spring Day, the narrative unfolds as a meditation on emotional contrast, beginning with grief and moving toward subtle renewal. It opens with the image of a boy mourning the loss of his beloved treasures, consumed by fire, leaving behind only ash and charred stone. The sorrow of this moment is underscored by the slow strike of a clock, a sound that signals the return to routine and the world’s indifference to personal loss. Yet this sense of detachment is not the chapter’s…-

Chapter Twenty-eight
The chapter explores the concept of grace through the perspective of Roya Shams, a woman who narrowly escaped death when her plane was mistakenly shot down by the USS *Vincennes*. Roya reflects on grace as an unearned gift, contrasting it with justice, which is transactional. She recounts how she traded passports with her lover, Leila, to help her flee Iran, only for Leila to perish in the crash instead. Roya grapples with the guilt of surviving while Leila died, framing her second chance at life as an…-

Vacation Time
Vacation Time stirs a vivid image of long-awaited freedom, especially seen through a child’s eyes. It begins with a boy trapped in the closing weeks of school, where every clock tick feels exaggerated. His mind, already playing in open fields or beside gentle streams, barely stays in the classroom. He pictures sunshine, the thrill of being outdoors, and the end of pencils and recitations. When the teacher’s voice breaks the daydream, it feels like being pulled from a place far more alive. Each school…-

Chapter
VERSE: THE VOICE OF THE WIND
The Voice of the Wind opens not with fear but with an invitation—to gather near the fire, to draw warmth and comfort from its steady glow. Outside, the storm rages, yet inside, a false sense of peace lingers. But the wind, wild and persistent, refuses to be ignored. It pushes against the windows, it screams through the cracks, and it carries with it memories the earth has long buried. In its cry is the clash of elements, a moaning lament that reaches farther than the eye can see. Though no one bids it…-

Ballad: Baines Carew, Gentleman
Baines Carew, Gentleman was not just a man of the law, but one profoundly attuned to the emotional burdens of his profession. While other attorneys might tally fees without blinking, Carew felt each case like a blow to his conscience. Whenever he needed to enforce a legal action—be it a simple eviction or the seizure of a debtor’s assets—he experienced it as a personal failure, not a procedural success. His empathy was so intense that even issuing a formal letter felt like a moral compromise. The…-

Chapter
Tasker Norcross

His presence had always unsettled the usual order, as though he neither fit in nor chose to stand out. With his passing, the town seems to recalibrate, reducing its view of humanity to two simple types…-

Ballad: The Two Majors
The Two Majors introduces a peculiar bond shared by two stern yet admired military officers whose command style thrives on discipline rather than praise. Major La Guerre and Major Makredi Preper, though gruff in demeanor, are paradoxically beloved by their men for their steadfast standards and unwavering consistency. Neither offers compliments, but both deliver sharp and frequent reprimands, which, surprisingly, becomes a badge of honor for their troops. This dynamic underscores a curious truth about…-

Chapter
VERSE: A Contrast
A Contrast opens with an invitation to reflect on a closed chapter of life, framed by an old ebony casket filled with tokens from the past. The scene is not dramatic, but deeply personal—inside are weathered letters, a delicate ring, a once-cherished locket, and most tellingly, a small portrait tied with a crimson thread. Each object carries the weight of memory, not merely sentimental, but transformative in what they once meant and what they now represent. The portrait is especially significant,…-
