Rose of Viterbo

Weekly Contest #86

Rose of Viterbo By Dewain Williams Rose was only eight years old when she had the vision. Born and raised in Viterbo. The city she adorned. It was close to midnight when the vision came. Rose was dosing off while sitting on the couch looking at the pinch black sky. A beautiful woman appeared in all white and spoke. "Rose, speak justice to all despite their power, despite the strength and might they may have. Never give up and never quit. Let not your young age discourage you in your efforts.

Sam

Sam By Dewain Williams We graced Davis with Our favour. We said, ‘You mountains, echo God’s praises together with him, and you birds, too.’ We softened iron for him, saying, ‘Make coats of chain mail and measure the links well.’ ‘Do good, all of you, for I see everything you do.’ And we subjected the wind for Sam. Its outward journey took a month, and its return journey likewise. We made a fountain of molten brass flow for him, and some of the spirits worked under his control with his Lord’s permission.

Weekly Contest #72

He was known for going strickly by the books. His grey hair stood out over his da...

Weekly Contest #66

IT DOESNT ADD UP By Dewain Williams Cason Conners half alive sat up on the edge of his bed and stared begrudgingly at the sun he depended on as his alarm clock. How could it look so bright and cheery each morning when he felt so dejected by his current position in life. At twenty-eight he was still living at home with his parents; that wasn't the problem. A house of his own seemed like too much responsibility. He still has nightmares about the responsibility of a puppy his dad got for him as a boy. "Sorry max wherever you ran off to." He...

Gang members

Weekly Contest #66

GANG MEMBERS By Dewain Williams The beef was on going for over twenty years. The Westside Boys against The Eastside Homies. Dozens of lives lost and countless injuries to innocent people in the process. A senseless turf battle that only continued so long because of pride and greed. The Westside Boys was the larger group and started in the late 90's. Headed by Big Steve, a true thug and killer by nature. It was rumoured that one time he killed three guys in one night because they were all short on cash they owed. People knew not to mess wi...
