My First Story

The Ekphrastic Review was kind enough to publish my first short story, Real Talk. If the link gets broken, it’s probably because they realized I’m a horrible writer. Don’t blame them, I didn’t warn them ahead of time. The story can be read here: https://www.ekphrastic.net/ekphrastic-journal/real-talk-by-kevin-francey

And yet, you never use the same email twice. I have a hard enough time trying to gratify one partner. Pleasing someone with multiple personalities is a task that borders on the Herculean. It’s like trying to “slay” an erotic Hydra. Get one head off and two more will be thirsty AF!

This myngirls.online is now the second website you’ve had to spam me with, which really makes me doubt your wizardry. But what do I know? For me to run just this one site is a labor that borders on the Herculean. So your [myn]ean lion is a pussycat for me to slay another day.

Well, fundamentally, the analysis of Hercules’ labors seems to agree that there is an erotic component; more specifically, a jealousy spawned from infidelity.

Okay, this is the second time now you’re claiming you can optimize optimization. I don’t care how big your team is, that’s absurd. Any further redundancy on your part will be deleted forthwith. You know, for brevity’s sake. (It seems I do have to clean up these damn messy [Abigayl]ean Stables after all.)

Well, Hercules’ labors were less of a suggestion and more of a mandate. A self-flagellation, if you will. The heinous nature of his behavior necessitated such a rarefied mix of cunning and brute strength to perform feats which seemed otherwise impossible. And, much like the word ‘cool’, not only have his exploits withstood the test of time; but further bred in the coarse flow of those temporal sands, his ability to overcome such incalculable odds, over and again, proved not only the imminence, but the inevitability of Hercules’ ultimate apotheosis.
But what do I know? I creamed my pants way back at self-flagellation…

And yet you can’t even nail down a single name or email from which to post these ludicrous solicitations. Which is interesting because a major driving force behind the Romanization of Heracles’ name was the proliferation of…

“…while Romanization and email creation are distinct processes, they intersect through personal identity and communication choices. Whether you’re embracing Romanized names or inventing unique email handles, both reflect our evolving cultural landscape.”
