Here was my hand, given to you years before. An apology came from my mouth in tandem with this extension, though I’d no prior offering from you. Acceptable terms were met. And we carried on as friends. Until, times became more turbulent. And conflicts became too volatile, that clashing and thrashing occurred. Yet “sorry” was […]

What is Precious?
In the epic, very well, debatably epic story, The Hobbit, there is a character named Gollum. This character had, in the distant past of the story, discovered a bauble of tremendous mysticism and magical power. This bauble was in the form of a ring, and with its use, this creature was able to become invisible whilst […]
How to disappear completely
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvRMAdAwIdQ&feature=youtu.be I plan on practicing this a thousand times more so that I may improve. But for now, this be my offering. Humbly yours, J
Guilt
So often must I resist the thoughts of disappointment. In the span of constructing the prior sentence, I have breathed vapors of this sensation, exhaling the propensity to succumb to these weights. And, too heavily do these millstones of defeatism weigh upon my shoulders, assuredly on your own, and doubtlessly haunt our growth and maturation towards […]
Miliseconds

Fraying in the evening
As winter coughs its arrival into my world it delivers puffs of nostalgia and wisps of yearning. As the melodies of familiar holiday tunes warm my sentimentality, the loss of innocence strums discordant notes.

Shifting Sights
For so long I was angry. I was distressed and full of energy and confusion. I was swayed easily by my naivety. And my anger was directed towards, in retrospect, so many things which bore me no ill will, nor had the immediate impact upon which my life would have hinged, nor my anger justified. […]
Lighter hand trick
Does this make you feel anything? Do you recall how it felt to have fire in your soul? Is it still there, or has your complacency extinguished it like a whore in a snuff film? Have you traded it for weariness? Have you traded it for sadness? Have you traded it for happiness? Was […]
Forest Sanctuary
Paris lived in the tree, deep in the forest, for many years. The tree-dwelling allowed him a distance from the ground, but not quite clearance to the skies. It was in this limbo that he found the isolated peace that afforded him balance with the world. Occasionally, forest creatures would gather about the base of […]
