This story was a delight to write.

[Usawa Literary Review @usawamag]

You may never look at a rogue mouse the same way again.

A Mouse's Saga by @ABHaiku turns the ordinary domestic world into a battlefield of survival, myth, and absurdity.

Read it in Issue 14: Witness.

‘Slender rays of the sun are
diligently drinking up entire oceans.

The invisible wind is
deliberately herding clouds
to bluer pastures.

Birds smaller than a palm
are ushering in
distant momentous springs’

@DradacoYT @SeanMac67914982 Likely. But I would have imagined him and Ancalagon in the thick of the battle with the dismayed hosts of the Valar. I somehow pictured him appearing in the skies on Vingilot with the ship already hallowed. That explains how a half-elven slayed such a mighty for.

‘Loom over me in

of ominous love.
Then in
sudden burst
rain, rain, rain
over me breathless.’

@sujays I've heard of this movie. Outright disgusting!

[Agni Barathi @ABHaiku]

@paapabutterfly "So you are also ready to sleep with anyone", Yes, that's how consent works. You missed a couple of words though - "with anyone I choose"

[Agni Barathi @ABHaiku]

We need @madonneashwin to remake #JayaJayaJayaJayaHey starring @VijaySethuOffl and @NayantharaU with @iYogiBabu commentating on the interval fight scene! Would be the mass movie of 2024 just like how #Maaveeran was the mass movie of 2023.

[Agni Barathi @ABHaiku]

@sujays Just consider the same statement - "Oh, they didn't even let me talk with that girl" made by a professional in any other field. At the very least the man would receive a warning and at worst would be fired from his job. Disgusting how these "heroes" keep getting away.

[Agni Barathi @ABHaiku]

@sujays Yep. I think I've seen him making similar comments maybe reg., Anushka? Every time a big actor makes a statement like this and the camera focusses on the woman being commented on, you can see the discomfort. That itself must be enough to shutdown this wrong comparison nonsense.
