Closure is such a funny word. Not it’s meanings, which are as varied as they are nigh-inapplicable to most earthly situations, but it’s spelling – the actual letters and sounds that make up it’s concept in our minds. Go ahead, say it out loud, mouth it a few times, let it’s syllables roll around in [ READ MORE ]
“I used to be my own protection, But not now. Because my mind has lost direction, Somehow.” -Chester from Linkin Park Say what you will about the band, he is a talented writer. He understands the concept of concise emotional release instinctively. It’s a trait you can coach but not one I believe you can [ READ MORE ]
I am a diabolical maxim, upon which you will simultaneously place your greatest hopes and your darkest fears. It sometimes seems hard to explain that everyday I grow more into the person I am meant to be. I think that the moment you stop growing you die; your body may keep moving but your presence [ READ MORE ]
“Suspicion is my new religion and you’re all too sketch to breathe.” - found that little gem in an old notebook Soundboards. I need more of them in my life. They are so much more necessary than I’d ever have believed. For me, almost always (even if it’s only in the sense that I tend [ READ MORE ]
Writing. I rather enjoy the craft. It moves forward, sometimes at breakneck speed, sometimes pacing a snail; ever forward it moves, much like time, the tale cannot be halted.

Fractures and rough edges crash and break like waves, only each wave is really pain and every break rubs raw like sand pelting windburned skin. The waves creep [ READ MORE ]
“You were right, you just weren’t right about me.” - 500 Days of Summer Great movie. In other news I had a great weekend, far too short of course, but no less great for it’s less-than-desirable duration. I spent most of Sunday teaching my youngest brother to use a scoped rifle. Pure fun. I also [ READ MORE ]
The dream is back. It’s a not-quite nightmare. It’s so realistic, so sensory. I have a nagging feeling, a sneaking suspicion even, that it is real. I wish I could explain how this dream affects me, how much it stays with me, how I hate my eidetic memory at times like these. The starkness of [ READ MORE ]
I tend to begin all if my posts the same way. I’ve noticed that I seem to need to place myself squarely inside a timeframe or position myself firmly in a place. I wonder if that’s learned behavior or if that is something that comes from within. Most likely it’s an amalgamate of nature and [ READ MORE ]
Life is. Yep, that’s the whole thought; hence the whole sentence. I am currently drying my work gear at the creepomat. There is a woman about ten feet from me drinking a bud heavy out of the can, with a coozie that says “wishin’ I wuz fishin’.” Legit. I know. In other news I got [ READ MORE ]
