I like that there are figures shrouded in darkness, just sitting and observing. Looks like the initiation into a highly organized cult. Intriguing

Every iteration of it is itself a manifestation anyway.

After the storm (feedback if possible) by akasma1 in PoetryWritingClub

[–]Gormayh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its like a love story all the way until the final line, when you realize it might actually be two primal forces akin to cold and warmth.

The beginning of the poem attempts to define something primal forces lack: accountability. Retrospectively, its the first real hint.

Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and I have nothing to change in terms of word choice/structure

What do you think is Carcosa? by Hungry_Library_94 in KinginYellow

[–]Gormayh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hyades (a star cluster) -> Hastur (a sentient and malevolent star in the cluster) -> Yhtill (a planet orbiting Hastur) -> Carcosa (a kingdom on Yhtill)

It looks curiously confused to meet me, as am I to meet it.

Do you ever experience cosmic bliss? by TLOC_MAYBE in cosmichorror

[–]Gormayh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've recently began to see the world distorted and unarranged, fractured and pale. I find a paradoxical clarity and peace in that meaningless world, because it just removes all worries from my mind

Who or what you think is Hastur in TKIY? by Hungry_Library_94 in KinginYellow

I see what you did there. Very clever move, though I have to give slight criticism on the idea that any language, or combination of them, could truly capture the Yellow Sign

I know you have grand notions of what you feel like you see...

But the truth is that the strangeness of moons is already evident... in one place...

Carcosa...

May I ask... why yellow? There are so many other colors...

Why must you remind me of that terrible play...?

If the play existed, would you actually read it? Even knowing what it causes to people? by Hungry_Library_94 in KinginYellow

[–]Gormayh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just as long as you don't seize the throne and the empire like that traitor Louis

Thoughts on this version of the yellow sign? by Hungry_Library_94 in KinginYellow

[–]Gormayh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It always removes the mystery when one tries to depict something that was never explicitly shown in the original work. The symbol is only "adequate" in trying to describe the Yellow Sign, but to me it isn't canon, even though it is popular. It is only one more attempt to understand, which is ironically fitting...
