Half The Devil’s, Half My Own

Sometimes the Sun is too bright. I nearly always expect to wake up in darkness, with wind and rain knocking on my windows and crashing against the ground just beyond my walls. Trees should be buckling under the force of nature. My fortress should be creaking. These days I open my eyes and close them [...]

Redefine This

I’m dying. I’ve lived a good life. There’s nothing more that can be done. I’m ready to go. These were the last thoughts of an old woman who lived her life with fiery compassion, endured the fires of hell, and started fires in the hearts of so many people she met. Her name is Marie [...]

Urgency

Note to Self: Don’t judge people based on the condition of the clothes they’re wearing. They could look like the poster Hobo from hoboland, but there’s a chance they might just be having a bad day. I now know this by personal experience. Saturday morning finds me in Rome. It’s eight o’clock in the morning [...]

Meaningful

Tonight greets the Wind from the crash of Thunder and the brilliant visage of a sulfuric Borealis. The wind howls with screaming rockets, quick and certain in their purpose, quick in it’s own and certain only that it moves. Thunderous booms shake it, but do not change it, for the Wind never changes and the [...]

Resolve

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything on here. There was a time I wrote blogs for a reason. The folk song generations called them finger pointing songs. I was trying to write finger pointing blogs. Somewhere down the line I lost focus and it is at a very hectic and trying time of [...]

Then I Want To Die.

My mind is hovering, swimming forward as my brain lags behind and feebly tries to keep up. I am fighting. My eyes are trying to shut but a force beyond themselves jerks them wide open again. The fan in my room creak, creak, creaks as it methodically hums a tune I would gladly fall asleep [...]

The Outsider

I’m proud to be a human. I was born on one small planet somewhere in the middle of a vast and very old universe. The fact that I am an object in that universe, and that, unlike most of the universe, I can be conscious of both myself and my environment, and that I can [...]

Crazy? Perhaps. Different? Of Course.

After band practice tonight, I waited outside, alone on a bench, for my friends to put their equipment back and get ready to go. I looked out at the sky; frustrated from a conversation I had hours earlier. Sometimes I think I’m in love with the wind. This world is full of people who don’t [...]

Let There Be Love

I got off work this morning and checked my mail. I received a box in the mail, and a few letters, but not the box I was expecting from my mom. It was from my dad’s side, letting me know they care and are doing their best to extend their love in my direction. I [...]

Infra Black

I was reading Good Omens by Terry Pratchett who I must add is a literary genius. The complexity and intricacy of his comedic stories is mind boggling. I finished the book today and sat in bed thinking, “This is what it feels like to have your mind literally boggled.” On one page somewhere in the [...]
