“Where is it?” “Pardon? I’m not sure to what you are referring.” “You are assuredly aware.” “Pretend that I’m not, and tell me what you’re talking about?” Tristan closed his eyes, then slowly inclined his head towards the ceiling. He shrugged his shoulders upwards, tensed and flexed his trapezius muscles into his neck, and squeezed. […]

Once Upon a War Crime
There we were, You and I. Staring into, each others eyes. Then we were, so sublime. Together forever, Once upon a time. There we were, intertwined. Nothing concerning, Naught in mind. Then we were, passionate and blind. Engulfed in each other, two stars aligned. There we were, without care. Content in the moment, going nowhere. […]
Open Heart Affirmation (VI)
A mosaic wall of tiny, flickering, squares filled his vision. At first, the rapidly shifting colors, pulsating pixels, and constantly changing imagery made little sense. A small square of black and red formed at the top right corner of his vision, while the remainder, flickered between bright white, gold, glassy colorations, and muted browns. Then, […]
Open Heart Reconnection (V)
Tristan stared into his reflection, and the tiny opening in the metal panel in his chest. The rest of his immaculate form seemed insignificant in relationship to this tiny hollow. He’d been in this same position before, feeling strangely perplexed, and gazing into a keyhole within himself. He suddenly twitched, and then a chill and […]
Observed irony
It is incomprehensibly ironic, to wear a t-shirt displaying the words “A smile changes the world,” while an annoyed, and disgusted scowl is portrayed mere inches above said message.

There are some things, you can give away. There are others you try to forget. There are many you can tear apart, bend, and break. There are pieces that can shatter, and those that can drown. There are many that are best dealt with, buried under ground. But there are some, a select few, that can […]
10! I give it a 10!
I have enjoyed Springhouse Brewing Company’s beers for a long time. My pseudo-love affair with their offerings began not long after they opened their taproom on King Street in Lancaster, PA. The atmosphere was a little quirky, a little edgy, and a little fun. The unique, imperial pint serving size, and option for half-pint, has […]
Loss
Many claims are made about loss. With great frequency, by many people, statements are made that address the loss of a particular item, memory, thought, idea, or emotion. “I’ve lost my car keys! What will I do?” “I can’t seem to recall the details of that particular trip, but I can assure you, it was […]
Third time is a charm
Everyone knows this saying, correct? Try something once, maybe the first experience isn’t a particularly enjoyable one. Just in case something in your mood is off, or the company you are with, or your stress level doesn’t allow you to properly enjoy an experience, you give it a second chance, right? How many chances does […]
The stars look very different
I’m not the biggest David Bowie fan. There, I said it, and cannot take it back. But in all honesty, I haven’t met a tremendous amount of people who claim to be, actual, Bowie “fans.” I won’t argue that he’s a talented musician. I can’t say that he doesn’t have an impressive catalog of music. […]
