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.

What Do You Want?

You've already licked my back with flames

You have scorched my skin and mind

This torture is not even the worst you can do

Want Me to beg? The hot

slash of blood on your face is not my disgrace

You want me to bleed? Go ahead

I have bled and I'll bleed again, I'm not dead

You want this too? Say it

You'll see me in Hell

But I won't see you.
