Creative Writing: 789 Raven Road
Just imagine living in a cemetery. Waking up to the screeching sound of the constant crows, and going to bed every night with sadie walking around restlessly crying about the death of her family, and knocking at your door. The cracked cross and the crumbling tombstone are the markers of where Sadie’s family lies. The grass is lifeless. There is a hole in the ground, it is the portal to hell. All of this and more is just a short drive down Raven Rode. The address is 789 Raven Road. It is easy to find because the street is a dead

    Creative Writing: The Seahawk

    Aboard the ship called the Seahawk, a series of dreadful actions took place. As I was going to get a needle for a sailor by the name of Ewing, I stumbled across a pistol while rummaging through Ewing’s chest. By the time I was leaving, I realized that there was an extra man aboard the ship. At the realization I decided there was nothing more to do than to contact the captain aboard the ship name Captain Andrew Jaggery. The captain then told the first mate, Mr. Hollybrass, to summon the crew on deck.…

    It seemed like a flawless plan. Everything was set up perfectly as they headed toward the party on Route 13. They had taken every precaution necessary for a night of pure, unadulterated fun. Upon arrival, Seth and Jenna greeted their friends as they entered the room. Various beverages were freely available throughout the house. Everyone was doing it, so they joined in on the fun as well. Varied thoughts about the night flashed through Seth's head here and there, but who was he to stop now?…

    Edward Smith's Monologue

    An abundance of overgrown grass stood stifling the coarse, archaic, interlocking cobblestone; so severely withered and disconsolate, that they ruptured against my footsteps. Little did I know I was treading a pathway to a profound cold hell? A hell infested with dark desires, leaping like hungry fingers, seeking something to devour. A hell said to be an abode of a translucent, vindictive being (that I was yet to meet). Amidst the ubiquity of malicious ivy slithering across the face of the house, sprouted a miniature door, contrived in a fashion approved by Satan himself (and director of the Ghostbusters).…

    Creative Writing: The Dalles Today

    We reached The Dalles today. This is our last stop to Oregon city and this is going to be the most dangerous part of the whole trip. We have to take the Barlow Road around Mt. Hood. The road is very messy. There are big rocks guarding the road. Sticks and broken wagon pieces are getting stuck in the wagons. On top of that, everyone is getting sick and have no energy to move the wagon and walk up the steep hill and walking through the narrow paths are hard because we can't walk on the side to hold the wagon up. The oxen are getting too tired to walk anywhere and the other families with mules keep stopping and that makes us run behind on schedule. Many people are dying because they have worked too much and haven't gotten enough sleep. When we…

    Symbolism's of Hell in "The Pit and the Pendulum"

    In the short story, Poe uses the pit to symbolize hell. In the beginning, the soldier describes going into the pit as “a mad rushing descent as of the soul into Hades” (Poe 268). The descent reminds the reader of hell in that it is beneath the surface of the ground. Also, when the soldier describes the mad rushing, it can represent hell because nothing in hell is supposed to be orderly or calm. In the Bible, hell is described as a chaotic and tortuous place. “Hades” is an allusion to Greek mythology and describes the underworld. Through the description of the pit from the soldier, the pit is considered hell because it is a chaotic and underground place. The soldier also says, “faces in coal that glow”, after he is brought down into the pit (Poe 268). This could also allude to hell because fire is an element commonly related to hell. Another element of hell that is used in the pit is the demon drawings on the walls. They are used to scare the prisoners that are being tortured. Demonic figures are a symbol of hell and because they are used in the short story, they add to the pit being a symbol of hell. In the pit, there is a hole near the middle that is a deep abyss. This abyss provides terror when the soldier realizes he has almost fallen into it, just as hell provides lasting terror. This abyss reminds the reader of hell because it seems like hell is a bottomless pit of lasting eternity. Through the elements described in the pit, Poe uses it as a symbol to guide the reader to view the story as a decent into hell.…

    Creative Writing: A Hero's Journey

    As Fin walked along the street the leaves of the oak trees shone like patches of blue velvet, but when he stopped still nothing shimmered. The waves refused to move. The glow of the city still seeped into the morning sky, forever. He felt he must be dreaming, and yet he was sure he wasn't dreaming because everything felt so real. Surely his brain was not powerful enough to create such a masterful illusion. Or was it? He felt his head imploding just trying to figure it…

    Creative Writing: Mallard Creek

    I come from Charlotte, North Carolina, one of the most up and coming cities in America. My town is a beautiful, flourishing area with a lot to offer to a variety of people. With such diversification, we have not integrated our neighborhoods, schools, or the social scene nearly enough. Communities can become racially prevalent leading to separations in culture and heritage. I can see this in the high schools throughout the area during our football games or competitions which is depriving to everyone involved. Leaving people unaware of their surroundings creates a bubble of ignorance. Mallard creek provides so much culture as it is is zoned for so many areas, however, other schools are not provided the opportunity I am. As the severance continues,…

    Creative Writing: Goulburn Correctional Center

    It was five o’clock in the morning, still dark and freezing cold. Silence filled the air, the only sounds made were screeching screams and cries for help. The guards walk past every ten minutes to ensure no inmates have escaped or harmed themselves in any way. After being here at Goulburn Correctional Center for just over fifteen years now, I know every rabbit hole, emergency exit and surveillance areas around this place. The key to survival here is; don’t make friends with anyone, don’t look anyone in the eyes and don’t eat the food unless you have to. My first thought every morning when I wake up is my two beautiful twins, James and Vanessa. The last time I saw them was 2002. Even though they were young when I was convicted, they have grown…

    literary analysis of the pit and the pendulum

    First, Poe uses imagery through the Pit symbolizing the narrator’s Hell. In the story, Poe writes, “To the victims of its tyranny, there was a choice of death with its direst physical agonies or death with its most hideous moral horrors.” Throughout the bible, prophets say that living the life as a sinner and going to Hell is the easiest way, while in the story Poe says that the Pit is the easiest way to die. The narrator also says that he is being carried down to Hell which symbolizes the pit and foreshadows to the pit later in the story.…

    The Groom Elevator: A Narrative Fiction

    Just as she was starting to say something, she heard a distant thud. I heard it, she said, it hit something. Terry, it’s a long way to the bottom, it must be an old well or something. Nobody could have drilled up here, he showed her, we could only get here on that narrow trail. Then what is it she asked? It’s a natural cavern. Smell the air venting out of that area, you can smell the cavern. Terry, this is amazing, but the mountain is full of natural caves and mines, why is this hole in the ground of interest to you, to us? It’s important because this is where the Widow Grambling came for years to be alone. Lynne, anything to do with this mountain is not to be discussed with anyone, not even your Mom. How do you know this is the spot the widow Grambling came to, since the trail splits at the edge of these boulders. Her handwriting, look above you, you have to really look. Before you get out of there look at the rock just above your head, what does it say. It reads Hells Dungeon.
