I could feel it in my bones. Like a deep dive into the ocean, the pressure of the situation engulfed me. My hands and feet were stiff, as if every cell in my body was flexing. I closed my eyes for a minute. I tried to take a deep breath but I found it suffocating.

Free Fall by @soundwavesphoton is a response to the prompt "tension" for @themarkymark's writing contest. The imagery and the buildup are so strong, but additionally, the twist emphasizes that tension through the sudden release of it. A fantastic bit of story telling, for sure.

Nip: That’s what all people do when they’re not nervous, right?
Rich: So how does this Rights Vigilante network work?
Asha: Pretty simple. Basically, people get an alert on their phone regarding the state harassment taking place, and if they want to help, they’ll show up to defend the victim.
Rich (uncertain): I dunno, it sounds kind of confrontational.
Asha: It’s just an act of defense, really. And anyone who participates has to do it peacefully. If they take any violent actions, they get suspended from the group.

Nip the Cat by @steeminganarchy is an interesting satirical screenplay, and an exploration of the idea of how, as a whole, we can take back society from tyranny. It also features a talking cat. The list of all the episodes is available if you'd like to start from the first one.

"Place your written application into Inbox C"
"C?"
"Yes, C."
"There doesn't seem to be an Inbox C."
"Why that's odd. It was just here."
"Do you have a suggestion?"
"Yes, that should go into Inbox C."

Put it into Inbox C by @wordymouth is an excellent freewrite that examines the frustration and futility of the office environment.

The wind quickly passing by,
Whispering a melody.
Clouds and fogs gently stay,
Kissing the peaks like lovers

(Poetry) Peaks by @chrislyr is such a strong, beautiful piece of poetry that makes masterful use of imagery and personification. The ending is just stunning.

Like the resonant wind of the flesh,
I blow and small roots are discovered in the dust,
like a network of veins with their intertwined sparkles.
The space is measurable and sonorous,
but without penetrable streets.

Secret Streets by @zeleiracordero meanders around the idea that we are all connected, that time doesn't exist, and the joy of spontaneity. Poetry is perfect for philosophy, don't you think?
