Become an Emerald Author
We just released our new monetization features with the soft launch of our paid subscription Portal, The Emerald Lounge. So, authors in the lounge can have paid subscribers for their content, be it poems, stories, or books, you know, the works you've been holding back until it's ready to shine like it should. Become an Emerald author by submitting your best work, or work you like. If you think you can out-drink, or even hang until closing time with Hemingway or Hank, we want to meet you. Accepted authors will receive a code for "Become an Emerald Author," which you will find in your settings. Go get it.

Canvas of Existence

they broke the mold when you arrived,

a breath in the universe, yet

unlike the stars or the void,

unlike anything that ever was.

you, a silhouette dancing on the canvas of existence,

a burst of wildflowers in a barren field,

a melody sung only once in the chorus of time.

you are not the echo or the

shadow or the sameness,

that the world so often regurgitates.

you are unprecedented,

the unfathomable,

the singular.

and in your wake,

the mold lies shattered,

a testament to your unique song,

an ode to the rhythm of your existence,

a tribute to you, who is like no other.
