The Crime Of Being Small Poem

Even seemingly quiet lives hold deep, dramatic stories Adelani has always been the kind of woman people overlook-a quiet, conservative church girl, dutiful and measured. But beneath her composed exterior lies a woman shaped by displacement, heartbreak, and a hidden wild streak she dares not name. After years of moving between cities in Nigeria, she has finally settled in Norwich, UK, where she is still finding her footing. Yet, home is a slippery thing when you carry the weight of expectation on your shoulders. When her paths crossed again with Alexander an older, professor from her time in university - her world tilts. He is unlike anyone she expected to love, and their attraction is immediate, undeniable. But love is never simple, especially when ghosts of the past refuse to be buried. A familiar name reappears-Dayo, the Nigerian ex who once shattered her trust. And with it, a triangle of longing, loyalty, and unresolved history begins to take shape. As Adelani navigates love, family, and the cultural pressures of being a Nigerian woman who dares to want something different, she harbors a truth that defies expectation: she does not want children. It is a choice that shocks those around her-a quiet rebellion against tradition, against the life that was supposed to be hers. But the past has its own way of creeping back, and when a secret side of her life comes to light, everything she has carefully built is at risk of unraveling. Bold yet intimate, *No Small Lives* is a deeply personal exploration of identity, love, and the quiet revolutions that shape us. Because even the quietest lives carry storms within them-and no life is ever truly small.

Then there’s James Bellini. His nickname? The Angel of Death. The man everyone fears. The man they all whisper about in dark corners. They say he’s merciless, that he has killed more people than anyone in the Circle. No one dares cross him. But there’s a secret, one that no one knows. James Bellini has never killed anyone. Not once. The rumors started because of a misunderstanding, a mistake so deep that even he couldn’t fix it. Now, the entire underworld fears him. Even the other bosses treat him like an equal, like he’s one of them. But the truth? The truth is something only God himself could untangle. And James? He’s just a man caught in the middle of it all.

After the nuclear war, the world was controlled by twenty mega-corporations that established a global government. Governed by AI, it judged everything. Gao Xin, who had only wished to live a peaceful life, inexplicably became a scapegoat for the elite and, unable to pay the imprisonment fee, was sentenced to ten years of exile on Crime Prison Island! On this island, there were no laws, no constraints, the only order being the numerous game arenas set up by the officials. The criminals could only participate like racehorses for the entertainment of the elite. Yet, on this prison island filled with Radiation, cyborgs, and many powerful villains, Gao Xin had no strength, no talent, and no background—like a sheep thrown into a crocodile pool, no different from being on death row. How could an ordinary person like him survive under the oppression of the strong, the geniuses, and the wicked? Unless in this world, there was a path, a path that allowed even the weakest to continuously break their shackles.

He crossed over to a new world where humans have magical power. They are called warriors. They use their power to kill the monsters that appear out of nowhere.

He wants to be Low-profile and grow strong using his system. ___________________________ [# Hey guys, check out my new novel: I am in a new world, playing an offline RPG game. ] [ # Guys, check out my new novel: Little Dungeon system .] ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------- Hey guys, this is my first novel.

"Lovers in Crime" follows the intertwined destinies of Blithe del Rosario, a celebrated fashion designer by day and a feared assassin, Lady Mystique, by night, and Chain Singh (Citrine Leohart-Curseal), a five-star general disillusioned by endless warfare. Timelime set in the aftermath of the Cataclysm—a catastrophic event that shattered the world of Gaea into new continents and led to the emergence of extraordinary beings known as Ascendants and grotesque Deteriorats—the story explores themes of love, bonds, family, justice, and moral complexity. As Blithe seeks revenge for her parents' murder, her path converges with Citrine's quest for peace. Together, they navigate a world filled with power struggles and ethical dilemmas, developing a deep bond despite the chaos around them. Their relationship faces external pressures and misunderstandings, testing their trust and commitment. Amidst their personal battles, Blithe and Citrine's love story blossoms, leading to the birth of six children who symbolize hope for a fractured world. The couple ultimately confronts their foes in a climactic showdown, overcoming challenges that solidify their partnership and pave the way for a promising future. The narrative concludes by reflecting on the overarching themes of order versus freedom and the quest for redemption, leaving everyone with a sense of hope and the ongoing struggle for balance in a post-cataclysm world.

The world is inhabited by two types of people: Humans and Irregulars. While Humans, who make up the majority, enjoy equality across different classes and cultures, Irregulars are a marginalized minority often kept separate from society. Their supernatural abilities, either inherited or awakened during adolescence, mark them as different, and often, dangerous. Three unique perspectives are about to collide: Elliot: A foster kid who stumbles into the wrong place at the wrong time, only to discover that he is an Irregular. Up until now, he's lived as a human, but his world is about to change in ways he never expected. Wendy: A determined young cop searching for her missing partner. While investigating a restricted area, she encounters Elliot and takes him in for questioning, unaware that this meeting will change the course of her mission. Devlon: A boy classified as an Irregular for as long as he can remember, kept hidden from the public eye. His life has been one of isolation-until now. With society pushing for Irregulars and Humans to integrate, tensions are rising. Each of these three faces a world that demands change, but how they respond could alter the future for both groups. When their small worlds collide, will events finally lead to peace between humans and irregulars? Or will this spark a new conflict altogether?

"Don't you have someone waiting for you in Itaca Captain? Maybe a wife or a son?!" I was so furious I didn't even notice the complete shock on Odysseus' face, and his shock rapidly turned into anger as well. "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! YOU KNOW THERE'S NOBODY IN ITACA WAITING FOR ME!" "HOW DARE YOU TALK LIKE THAT? WHAT ABOUT PENELOPE AND TELEMACHUS?!" "WHO THE FUCK ARE THESE PEOPLE NOW?!" And that was the moment everything I thought I knew crumbled. [!attention! Detected false knowledge and incongruity within the soul] [please remember that the odyssey from your world is a fiction created several hundreds years after the story took place] [this is not a book]

After being suddenly transmigrated into a novel that I've read years ago, I've realized that I've been swapped into the body of Villainess, Seraphine Montclair, or rather, the deceitful wife of the ever-most perfect crown prince of the Velmoria Empire, a kingdom ruling the large continent with great power and authority. With the nearing death approaching in time, I, Seraphine, must find a way to escape this death. Except.. I'd rather bring justice to Seraphine's cliche, gullible, and awful platitude personality that had obviously left her to a bad ending. So this time, I will be a true villainess while still being able to restore my tainted reputation! But with another instance, a system is manipulating my actions with choices from time to time, almost like an interactive game..

These are some poems, or rhymes, that I have written in my free time. I hope you enjoy.

It pays to look like the undead, when the paranoid emperor holds all first born nobles hostage in the Royal Academy. Particularly when the promiscuous crown prince treats the place as his own personal harem. That's why the infamous royal recluse, Lord Patric Siccus, doesn't mind that he looks like a dehydrated goblin, or that his eyes bulge out when he's too excited, and how his mouth fills up the rest of his face when he tries to smile. He went there for the library, after all. ___________________ !!! DISCLAIMER !!! This novel is a work of fiction.

This is the heartbreaking story of my experience with the girl I like despite giving everything I had, pouring my heart into every moment, it was never enough. No matter how much I tried, no matter how much I gave, I faced nothing but rejection. It’s a painful reminder of how sometimes, even the deepest feelings can go unnoticed and unreturned.

Just some poems, you might not even consider thinking of them as one, but for me they are, at least.

Durante os anos 70, Carlo, conhecido como Abaçai, era o senhor absoluto do crime organizado no Brasil. Operando em meio à repressão do regime militar, ele criou um império criminoso que se estendia por todo o país, corrompendo políticos, controlando a polícia e manipulando a economia nas sombras. Sua mente estratégica e brutalidade o tornaram uma lenda, mas também o levaram à ruína. Traído por aqueles em quem confiava, Carlo encontrou um fim violento. No entanto, o destino lhe deu uma segunda chance. Em 1991, ele renasce como Túlio Panvanore, em uma família de classe média em Brasília. Com memórias intactas de sua vida passada e o conhecimento de como manipulou e moldou o país, ele percebe que o legado de Abaçai ainda vive. As estruturas de poder que construiu continuam a influenciar a sociedade atual, e os fantasmas de suas ações assombram o presente. Agora, Túlio enfrenta um dilema: usar suas habilidades e experiência para retomar o controle do submundo, reconstruindo o império de Abaçai, ou encontrar um novo caminho em um Brasil que ainda carrega as marcas do caos que ele criou. Mas o passado nunca permanece enterrado, e antigos aliados e inimigos começam a perceber que o fantasma de Abaçai pode estar de volta. Em uma Brasília dividida entre política, corrupção e a memória de um império criminoso, Túlio descobre que sua segunda vida pode ser tão mortal quanto a primeira. Afinal, o que é mais perigoso: um homem que aprendeu com seus erros ou um mundo que ainda vive sob sua sombra?
