The Red Death By Maria Monologue
And there as they danced, encompassed in their own self-aggrandized jovialness until the twelfth hour of the clock sounded and a whisper parted through the crowd of a mysterious stranger. Still, after a moment of uncertainty, they once again began to sway, the rooms densely packed and beating with the heart of life, and whirling to the music. All as I lie hidden between the walls of the fortress known to none but my own hubris, watching in a steady silence. I look on at their dress, the vivid hues a poor reflection of my own tattered and dull cladding. Still, I voice a silent prayer, reminiscing over my narrow escape. As I peer on, I take notice of the figure which slowly becomes clearer and see the model of a maiden gradually coming into view. …show more content…
Your handsomeness, my dear, almost reaches that of mine. Now answer me this, how come I’ve never seen you before?” He inquired staring into her eyes of ebony with great interest and apprehension. One surprise to find outside of describing his own …show more content…
The Red Death once again grabbed hold of Prospero, her hands oozing through her poor and her body stained a deep Scarlett. “Why do you scorn me? Why do you retreat your hand? I am the path of truth. I am the beginning and the end. I am where all your deepest desires lead; I am destiny, but you think yourself better than fate.” She hissed and spat into Prospero's shrinking demeanor. “Oh, King of fools who march about like false prophets and lock themselves in gold towers. Oh lords of gluttony who feast like feudalists and think not of those who suffer under your imposed fealty. Oh, Knight of merriment which you hold selfishly to no one, as you dance and sway from dawn to dusk. Don’t you know that all that is ripe with vitality must eventually wrinkle and all that is blue must eventually wither away into the deepest crimson? Do you deny it, or do you deny it? Do you not wish to step into the night? Do you fear the snare? Let me show it to you then, true darkness.” And with one fluid movement, The Red Death planted

    be my siblings. Personally I would like to refrain from taking that action. That still leaves the problem of dealing with this cold. As I looked down both cave passages I notice a red haze that seems to emanate from the right passage. When I take a second look I can't see it? What is this about? At anyrate red seems to be promising in terms of finding heat so, right it is. I progress for quite some time down the rocky cave, occasionally small…

    A grey world—cities, faces, grime—but two colours made their rare appearance: bloody red and asphyxiation blue. Spring, 1918: both gruesome shades were present in London’s hovels and had struck down the hardworking with fevers and coughs. The greatest of mysteries: How had Mrs Jim Dawson been felled by the Spanish flu? The squalid shack was filled with the drifting sounds of boisterous children, laundering women, loitering men, many unemployed catcalling the loose women whose ankles flashed beneath…

    Isn’t it disappointing when the crimson red turns brown? The red- the red is what I want. The red is what gave me the thrill. Now, you think that this is a madman talking-that I am insane. Only an insane man could think these horrible thoughts. I was not always the madman that I am now. I never thought about killing- it was merely a tragic thing that happened to those around me, but you never think you will be the one behind the blade. You never think that something so terrible, so awful could…

    night. They fanned out like a well-coordinated army hunting all throughout the town. Upon arriving at its outskirts, where the Spring Festival had taken place they found him. His clothes were covered in soot and his body was contaminated with bright red blisters and burns. He was kneeling on the grass, crouched over, and coughing with an unrestrained ferocity that was only needed to dispel the smoke that his lungs had inhaled. Upon seeing the cowardly figure, the townspeople pulled him up from his…

    heartbeat, timid eye contact, and tense palms that left imprints of red crescent moons on my thighs. Looking stupid has always been something I’ve been a master at. In my mind, the idea of being called on and not knowing the answer to a question was as terrifying as dropping down a 400 ft roller coaster ride with no handlebars. So…

    The red Toyota pickup idled past us. A handful of stern-faced young men sat on their haunches in the cab, Kalashnikovs slung on their shoulders. They all wore beards and black turbans. One of them, a dark-skinned man in his early twenties with thick, knitted eyebrows twirled a whip in his hand and rhythmically swatted the side of the truck with it. His roaming eyes fell on me. Held my gaze. I’d never felt so naked in my entire life.…
