The River Phoenix

The River Phoenix

Another Evocative Story By Mark Stewart

The River Phoenix – She hobbled along the pavement, her limping gait unnoticed by those she shared the side walk with.

The Trophy Room

The Trophy Room – He lounged in his recliner – the patina of the leather richly burnished by the constant use. Feet up on the elevated rest – ankles crossed – one slipper dangled from a calloused big toe. His stubby fingers surrounded the etched crystal tumbler.

The absolute, sublime and exquisite power – the taking of life. His fame and glory fashioned by brutality and made whole – made real by money, connections, power, arrows and bullets. A reputation for the ages.

Mark Stewart’s Haunting Story Of Survival

The Oak And The Heather – He had been running for a long time, so long that he could no longer feel his legs. His feet were cut and blistered, ripped by a razor wire mesh of brambles and thorns, and his body heaved with the effort of breathing.
