The stars know nothing more than to shine, shine, shine Those on the ground look to the sky, sky, sky. To gaze upon the sparkles in the night, night, night. Wishing that we could burn so bright, bright, bright. Shinning like the stars in our sight, sight, sight. Ignoring how brilliant we are inside, inside, […]

The Waste (VII)
Before Allamar brought his scaled, water-dwelling colossus to the village, the succession of chieftainship had been passed generationally, from father to son, for as long as any living member of the village could recall. The passing of time had been so considerable since the last catch-to-chieftainship, that none of the villagers could specifically remember whose […]
Propulsion
I remember being a scrawny youth, a mere twelve years old, and having recently returned from living overseas for five years in China. I was enrolled in the nearby high school, and was preparing to enter eighth grade, admittedly, being a bit young for that time. I had managed to skip first grade, and thus, […]
Open Hand
Here. Please, open your hand. Are you ready? Good, I’m glad. I will just ask one thing of you, before I place it in your hand. I’m not asking anything outlandish of you. No, no. Its not heavy, nor will you damage it. I assure you, it’s not burdensome. There’s no reason to be scared […]

It’s terrific advice to give to another person, yet terrifying advice to receive. Yeah! Go for it. Screw whatever conventional thought may say regarding a […]
Failure is not an option
This phrase makes me think of incredibly tense scenes in action movies. Perhaps it is the one where aliens have attacked the earth, subjugated a majority of its inhabitants, with those who haven’t been captured, mounting a brave assault on the hive mind compound, with hopes that this bold action cripples the six-limbed, bug-eyed invaders, […]
_______Sunrise, ________Sunset. Sunrise________Sunset________. Meaning
I spend my days in a glorious haze. Searching for ways to keep the nightmares at bay. I spend all my nights pursuing delight. Seeking to send all my demons to flight. The dawns in between, are where I am, yearning. Dusk is where I’m grasping, and hoping, for meaning. Humbly yours, j […]

Lonesome Highway Syndrome
I don’t think it likely, when I present to you a very particular type of experience, that you will find yourself unable to relate. I choose the words, “I don’t think it likely,” very carefully, as undoubtedly, there are some who have not experienced that which I am about to describe. For the small populous […]
