  • candlestick street
    by bellmusker

    Lightning sends pale flashes across the blood red walls and I know I’m in the street of the candlesticks

    The most beautiful place in the world is Brussels; a city where the medieval art is apocalyptic, and tattooed women are adored. I lived in the Sablon, the funky artists’ quarter of tiny crooked lanes and biscuity gabled houses. My home was built in the 1500s and held five storeys lilting into the Flemish sky; my room had blood red walls and huge ivory windows that looked out over the cobblestones. I would sit for hours on end at my windowsill. My street was full of shadows and history, first listed on city maps in the 1100s and graced with both a Flemish and French name, like all streets in Brussels. Rue des Chandeliers / Kandalaarstraat was so magical that stories were delivered to my windowsill, and I spilt my ink with joy. My username comes from here: bell is from the two fourteenth century churches placed at either end of my alley, which would ring out the hours with medieval musicality. Musker is from the Flemish slang for girl, maskker ……and that was me, a dark eyed woman with joy in her heart and ink on her fingertips, watching the Flemish sky and laughing.

  • C'mon!
    by Brett Foster

    She’d done some things to get ahead. / The lonely cry, the empty bed. / And she’d reasoned them harshly. / Better to be, than be dead.
