A New Start

The B

1 min read

It's just out that way.

Into the unknown.

Now adjust your thinking.

A stable decision.

Do it now.

Beyond sight.

Beyond Fear, an illusion.

Excitement waits.

A new life,

a clean slate.

All new people.

Take the leap.

Faith required

That thing you really want.

It'll always be just out of reach....

Reality Check

The B

1 min read

Your revelation to them

has boxed me in.

Created chaos.

Are you aware?

I guess not.

You don't need anyone.

Too many secrets.

Too many DUI's?

No need to answer.

You live in L.A.!

I'm your older sister,

by two years.

I know you well.

Same day for you

again,

and again,

and again.

It doesn't end.

No depth, no substance.

I'm pissed off.

Come-day, go-day.

Never had a g...

The Scent Of Silence

The B

1 min read

If silence had a scent, it would be beyond what human words could describe. The scent particles reach those small nerve endings inside the human nostrels only to be detected. Detected at such a delicate level. You know there’s something to be fully realized but can’t put it into words, but remain silent beyond the 10 second rule. Thus, we have the scent of silence....

Beneath The Surface

The B

Beneath the surface

or the surface beneath.

More than meets the eye,

or ear,

the one that hears best.

It’s between the lines.

What they are saying.

Multiple meanings,

each word has.

Words are like legos,

put them together.

The ones that fit,

to say and reach far.

It’s block by block,

how this will get done.

Build your structure,

beneath the surface.

Big or small,

how it’ll get done.

Long Hypersleep

The B

1 min read

Slowly coming to her senses and into the foreground, the revolving sound of an emergency siren echoed off the small pods walls.

Riley, barely conscious from her long hypersleep, estimated it had probably been going off for the past 36 hours. Her hypersleep tube was already opened.

She began to lift herself up slowly and saw that the hypersleep tube next to her’s was damaged. Like something had...

Changed

The B

I’ve started attending this university as a freshman while he’s been here a long time. As my new roommate, he doesn’t ask me questions about myself but I recognize him immediately.

He talks a lot. Mostly about his job at the local pizza shop and shows me pictures of a few celebrities who have visited.

He doesn’t know that I’m that high school freshman who “beat him up” after school six ago. An...

Office Politics

The B

1 min read

“So, who’s going to die today?” yelled the boss as if we deserved to be reprimanded. He was cowered behind the rock having already felt the unexpected sting of being shot in the leg with a paintball and was really “pissed-off.”

I’m still a new employee and this was meant to be a fun Saturday company event. Last Friday afternoon, the boss himself insisted we all show up the following morning in S...

No Interruptions

“I was just trying to be what you wanted.” He replied in his own defense standing out on the street in the pouring rain.

Even more furious, she glared at him ready to strike. “Go be with her!” She snapped with a smirk then almost stumbled in a drunken stupor. “You’re using me!”

“I didn’t do anything! You’re drunk again. This has nothing to do with me.” He replied wiping the water from his face ...

Zzyzx Road

The B

1 min read

There it is! I’ve finally made it. Zzyzx Road.

Damn! The ground is scorching hot. I can handle it though. If I follow this dirt road, they said I’d find the best and biggest abandoned watering hole in the Mojave Desert known to insect, just short of Vegas. And that I wouldn’t want to leave.

On foot, the road went on forever.

A week later, I came upon a huge crucifix-shaped neglected but hal...

Escape To The Underworld

The B

1 min read

I don’t know how they, Hades, Ares and Kakia, those evil ancient gods, found me but they did! And their monsters are probably a half-day’s journey behind. Because we are going in circles, I can smell them.

Those evil gods must be begging permission from Zeus himself for free reign inorder to challenge me more directly. Probably to stop me, a mortal, from reaching the underworld. That must be why...
