Rune Bear (upcoming digital literary magazine) is looking for stories about... Rune Bear.
What the hades is a rune bear anyway? All we know is that they're blue, covered in glowing runes, and often found in wintry woods. But other than that, they're a complete mystery. We're looking for petite prose and poetry about these wondrously weird creatures.

The Rune Runners

It was not a race,

To see who paced,

The best.

But still Rune Bear First,

Growled with all the hurl,

He had in his veins.

This was a mission,

And he had to win.

Or the punishment,

Would be his biggest sin.

The glinting scales,

On his glowing skin,

Were a give-away,

To where he was hiding.

The ice was cold,

But he dressed in the frost.

And stood on the top,

Of the mountain howling.

For extinction,

Was a war.

One they had to win.
