Dark Matter — Stephen Donald Huff

It shapes the cosmos by confining the stars and is, perhaps, the interstellar sire of human spawn. Within each mind Dark Matter abides, the primordial ancestor of all things chaotic, violent and destructive. Gravitational and inert, it unyieldingly obsesses our most deviant desires while alternately flinging our most violent impulses into the fringes of destructive behavior. Take time to embrace the Dark Matter of life, if only because it is utterly inescapable. Explore the horror of contemporary darkness when you read “Ogre”, “Cassandra's Cat”, “Redemption”, “King Charlemagne Ebersol”, “Perverse”, “Dorry's Dilemma”, and “Poop Love”. Apocalyptic visions are, by nature, dark experiences, as you will enjoy in “Radiance and the Lingering”, “Maxim One”, and “Reaper”. Confront darkly dystopian futures in “All My Befores and Afters”, “Mate”, and “Veer”. Voyage into surreal shadow within “Never the Twain Shall Meet”, “A Clockworks Harlequin”, “The Forever Man”, “In Lividity of Dreams”, “Pyatak”, “Clandestine Incandescence”, and “Eleven”. Celebrate shades of history in “Semper Fidelis”.
